  • Note
    "二" is different from "两". 1) "二" shall be used instead of "两" when read as a number, ordinal numbers, decimals, and fractions or in mathematics. 2) Before quantifiers, "两" shall be used instead of "二" for single digits, and use "二" instead of "两" for single digits in multiple digits. 3) Both "二" and "两" can be used before the unit of weight and measurement, but it is an exception that "二" is used instead of "两" before the mass unit "两". 4) For the multiple digits, "二" is used for hundreds, tens, and digits, and "两" is used for thousands, but "二" is used for hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands after the first digit.
