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
  • 怕六下
  • 写十页
