Words that are usually used to represent the quantitative units of people, things or actions are called quantifiers.

Food is divided into countable food and uncountable food.

Those who can count can be quantifiers according to their shapes, such as

A fried dough stick, a fried bun, a steamed bread, a chicken leg, a biscuit, a piece of beef, a ham, an onion, a bundle of celery, etc.

Countless foods are expressed by degrees, such as quantifiers for food: a meal, a breakfast, a little food, etc.

Quantifiers for food with utensils include: a spoonful of rice, a bowl of noodles, a pot of soup, a dish of side dishes, a plate of fried meat, a can, a bottle of soy sauce, a glass of milk, a tube of tomato sauce, a box of cakes, a pack of snacks, a glass of wine, a bundle of beer, etc.

Quantifiers representing food can basically be represented by noun quantifiers.

Classification of noun quantifiers

Special noun quantifier

A unit of measurement that represents things. For example, "strips, roots, branches, slices, grains, pieces, pairs, pairs, buckets, kilograms, kilometers, acres" and so on. These are all special quantifiers. Some noun quantifiers are borrowed from nouns, such as "jar (a jar of water), dish (a dish of peanuts), box (a box of books)" and so on. This kind of quantifier is called "borrowed quantifier".

Temporary noun quantifier

Refers to some nouns that are temporarily in the position of quantifiers and used as quantitative units. Take two plates of jiaozi and a bottle of soy sauce. I sat in a room full of people and made a bed. This form usually indicates the number of things owned by a place. There are two differences between group A and group B:

1, the number in group A can be any number, and the number in group B can only be "one".

2. Group B emphasizes quantity, but Group A doesn't.

Measure noun quantifier

Mainly the unit of measurement. For example: kilograms, feet, acres, degrees, etc.
