Measure Cards, for the part of Chinese nobody teaches properly
A reference and practice app for 168 Chinese measure words, with categorized examples, audio, tone options, and targeted drills.
Field notes
Measure Cards organizes 168 Chinese measure words into fifteen categories based on what they count, then pairs them with example nouns, full sentences, and recorded audio. Its practice mode can present a word visually or by sound and uses scheduling to revisit weak spots; personal additions accept forms such as “ba3” and generate tone marks, zhuyin, and color. The page says favourites, custom words, and history sync through the user’s iCloud, while Plus costs a one-time $4.99.
