(dào)—linear projections seems to be listed twice. Is this correct?--Pepsi Lite (talk) 14:38, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's possible that it was listed in both the classifiers and massifiers sections intentionally, as the distinction is somewhat fuzzy and this word has features of both (for instance, 一道光 is massifier-ish, whereas 一道命令 is more classifier-ish). It is also entirely possible that I just made a mistake when splitting the table, and forgot to delete one or the other. rʨanaɢ talk/contribs 14:48, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What about (, dài) for long, ribbon-like objects. It's in the main article (and in my dictionary), but since I am only a learner, I am reluctant to put it in myself. Well written main article by the way.--Pepsi Lite (talk) 10:36, 24 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that is commonly used. I am Chinese yet I don't ever recall hearing that. 华钢琴49 (TALK) 23:46, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
