现代汉语交通工具量词研究 = The study of modern Chinese transport classifiers by 吴谚融 Ng, Yan Rong

“…As the evolution of modern Chinese classifiers became complex, Diao (2009) explained that the Chinese Classifier system is going through both processes of simplification and complication at the same time. For example, che ‘car’ can be described by liang, tai, and bu at the same time, which means that che can have multiple classifiers, which points to the complication in ways that a car can be described. …”
