Foreigners often make some strange mistakes in Chinese when they study the most difficult language— —Chinese. We try to analyze typical sentences to correct these errors.
Nín yào jǐ pínɡɡuǒ?
False: 您要几苹果？
Nín yào jǐ ɡè （ɡōnɡjīn） pínɡɡuǒ?
True: 您要几个（公斤）苹果？
用“几”询问数量时，“几”与中心语之间一定要用量词。“苹果”的计量单位可以用“个”，也可以用“公斤”。
There must be a measure word between 几 and its head word in a sentence using 几 to inquire number. Apples are usually calculated in units of 个 or 公斤, so either 个 or 公斤 should be added before 苹果.
