This site provides a great guide to the many measure words in the Chinese language. We have some in English for example, 3 "cups" of tea; 2 "bars" of soap; 1 "piece" of paper; etc. However we can also speak of many words without using measure words for example, 3 cats; 2 people; 1 car; etc. That is not the case in Chinese though, so although it seems daunting, one must at some point try to learn/memorize the appropriate measure words for their respective nouns. The site we've referred you to will surely be useful in this.

The following website provides free educational information regarding the teachings of the Bible, with a page in Simplified script and the same information on a page in English.
