When to use Big and Rough Numbers with 万, 好多 and 多
万 means ten thousand, and Chinese groups big numbers by 万, not by thousands: 10,000 is 一万, 50,000 is 五万, 1,000,000 is 一百万. 好多 means “a lot of” and goes straight before a noun: 好多人. 多 after a number means “more than, -something”: 二十多个人 “twenty-something people”, 一个多小时 “over an hour”.
这个手机五千块。
This phone costs 5,000 yuan.
他有好多朋友。
He has lots of friends.
我等了二十多分钟。
I waited twenty-something minutes.
这个城市有八百万人。
This city has eight million people.
흔한 실수
- Say 一万 for 10,000, not 十千: once you reach ten thousand, switch to 万.
- Say 二十多个人, not 二十个多人: after a round number, 多 comes before the measure word.
- Say 一个多小时, not 一多个小时: after 1–9, 多 comes after the measure word.
