Most modern count-classifiers are derived from words that originally were free-standing nouns in older varieties of Chinese, and have since been grammaticalized to become bound morphemes. [90] In other words, count-classifiers tend to come from words that once had specific meaning but lost it (a process known as semantic bleaching). [91]
In this order, Chinese characters are sorted by their stroke count ascendingly. A character with less strokes is put before those of more strokes. [6] For example, the different characters in "漢字筆劃, 汉字笔画 " (Chinese character strokes) are sorted into "汉(5)字(6)画(8)笔(10)[筆(12)畫(12)]漢(14)", where stroke counts are put in brackets.
