三次

三次 means 'three times' in English, indicating the repetition of an action or event three separate occasions. It is a numerical expression used to quantify how often something happens.

The character 三 (sān) means 'three,' and 次 (cì) means 'time' or 'occasion.' Together, they form a compound word that directly translates to 'three times.' This structure is common in Chinese for expressing frequency.

三次 is frequently used in daily conversation to describe repeated actions, such as meetings, events, or habits. For example, it can be used in phrases like 三次会议 (three meetings) or 我们去了三次 (we went three times). Understanding this phrase helps learners grasp how Chinese expresses repetition with numbers and time-related terms.
