When a verb is done more than once, it also requires a measure word to accompany it.
Here's the basic structure:
V + Number + MW
The grammar pattern is very similar to English. For example, "看三次" and "saw three times" mirror each other in structure.
Here are some examples using this pattern:
- 做 两 次
- 拍 六 下
- 写 十 页
