Module talk:zh/data/dial-syn/小時
Latest comment: 4 years ago by The dog2
@Justinrleung, Mar vin kaiser Do you think this is a good way to name this module? I know it's a sum of parts, but if you want to say, 1 hour in Mandarin, 一個小時 or 一個鐘頭 is the grammatically correct way to say it. But in Hokkien and Teochew, it's 一點鐘 and not 一個點鐘.

- @The dog2: (1) The title is wrong (鐘, not 鍾). (2) It's definitely SoP. I think we can use 小時 for this since we can say 一小時 or 一個小時. Then we can use notes to say if classifiers are needed/optional. — justin(r)leung { (t...) | c=› } 22:22, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Justinrleung: OK, but just so you know, in Hokkien and Teochew, classifiers are not optional; they're just not used, and you will sound weird if you add a classifier. In Cantonese, would it be accurate to say that 鐘 is the noun, and 個 is the classifier? The dog2 (talk) 22:30, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
- @The dog2: See how I've modified the module. Does this look okay? — justin(r)leung { (t...) | c=› } 22:33, 6 June 2020 (UTC)
