== One by One with 名量 ==

注：当这个量词是时间名词"天、年"时，表示的其实是"little by little, gradually"，而非字面意思。

=== Structure ===

<div class="jiegou">
一 + Measure Word （+ 一）+ Measure Word + Noun
</div>

=== Examples ===

<div class="liju">

*请 <em>一</em> 个 房间 <em>一</em> 个 房间 检查。<span class="pinyin">Qǐng <em>yī</em> gè fángjiān <em>yī</em> gè fángjiān jiǎnchá.</span><span class="trans">Please inspect room by room.</span>
*别 着急，<em>一</em> 点 <em>一</em> 点 做 。<span class="pinyin">Bié zháojí, <em>yī</em> diǎn <em>yī</em> diǎn zuò.</span><span class="trans">Don't worry, do it little by little.</span>
*宝宝 <em>一</em> 天 <em>一</em> 天 在 长大。<span class="pinyin">Bǎobao <em>yī</em> tiān <em>yī</em> tiān zài zhǎngdà.</span><span class="trans">The baby is growing up day by day.</span>
*爸爸 妈妈 <em>一</em> 年  <em>一</em> 年 在 变 老 。<span class="pinyin">Bàba māma <em>yī</em> nián <em>yī</em> nián zài biàn lǎo.</span><span class="trans">Year by year, mom and dad are becoming old.</span>

</div>

== over and over again with 动量 ==

数量短语一旦重叠，意义和用法都会改变。如果使用的是动量如"次、遍"，这个短语放在动词前作状语，用于描写动作地方式，或者表示动作已重复了多次。

=== Structure ===

<div class="jiegou">
一 + Measure Word（+ 又）+ 一 + Measure Word
</div>

如果说话人想强调动作重复之多，常常加"又"来加强语气。

=== Examples ===

<div class="liju">

*我 <em>一</em> 次 <em>一</em> 次 问，他 就是 什么 都 不 说 。<span class="pinyin">Wǒ <em>yī</em> cì <em>一</em> cì wèn, tā jiùshì shénme dōu bù shuō.</span><span class="trans">I asked him again and again, but he still wouldn't say anything.</span>
*我 <em>一</em> 遍 <em>一</em> 遍 地 跟 他 解释，他 还是 不 听。<span class="pinyin">Wǒ <em>yī</em> biàn <em>yī</em> biàn de gēn tā jiěshì, tā háishì bù tīng.</span><span class="trans">I explained it to him over and over again, but he still won't listen.</span>
*你 为什么 <em>一</em> 遍 <strong>又</strong> <em>一</em> 遍 地 听 这 首 歌 ？<span class="pinyin">Nǐ wèishénme <em>yī</em> biàn <strong>yòu</strong> <em>yī</em> biàn de tīng zhè shǒu gē?</span><span class="trans">Why do you listen to this song on repeat?</span>
*他们 <em>一</em> 次 <strong>又</strong> <em>一</em> 次 犯 这 种 小 错误 ，让 经理 很 头疼 。<span class="pinyin">Tāmen <em>yī</em> cì <strong>yòu</strong> <em>yī</em> cì fàn zhè zhǒng xiǎo cuòwù, ràng jīnglǐ hěn tóuténg.</span><span class="trans">They make this mistake over and over again, giving the manager a headache.</span>

</div>

== Other Usage ==

除了有以上的功能，数量短语重叠还可以做定语，重在描写，表示"众数或数量多"，这种情况通常省略第二个"一"。如"一朵朵花、一座座山"等。
