- <p>When a verb is done more than once, it also requires a measure
- word to accompany it. This way the measure word is acting as a way
- to count the frequency or re-occurrence of an action.</p>

- <div class="jiegou">
- <p>Verb + Number + Measure Word</p>
- </div>
- <p>The grammar pattern is very similar to English. For example,
- "看三次" and "saw three times" mirror each other in structure. In
- Chinese sentences, these measure words can either come after the
- verb (as a complement) or before the word (as an adverb). You
- should also know that, like nouns, some verbs have special measure
- words to go with them. The basic verbal measure word, however, is
- 次.</p>
