You use drawers all the time! A drawer is a box that slides in and out of furniture like a desk or a dresser. You can put things inside a drawer to keep them tidy or hidden. For example, you might put your pens in a desk drawer or your clothes in a dresser drawer. It's a very common and useful part of many furniture pieces in your home.
When you're organizing your home or office, you'll definitely come across a 抽屉 (chōuti). This word means a 'drawer', like the kind you pull out from a desk or a cabinet.
It's a very common noun, and you'll use it often when talking about furniture or where you keep things. Think about where you put your pens, socks, or important papers – those are all likely in a 抽屉.

§ What does it mean and when do people use it?
Let's learn about 抽屉 (chōuti). This word is super common, and you'll hear it all the time. Simply put, 抽屉 means 'drawer'. Think of any kind of drawer – in a desk, a dresser, a cabinet, whatever. If you pull it out to put stuff in or take stuff out, that's a 抽屉.
- DEFINITION
- A sliding box-like container in a piece of furniture, used for storage.
You'll use 抽屉 whenever you talk about storing things in these compartments. It's a straightforward noun. No fancy hidden meanings here, which is great for learners!
把书放在抽屉里。(bǎ shū fàng zài chōuti lǐ.)
Translation hint: Put the book in the drawer.
See? Easy. You literally just say 'drawer' where you would in English. Let's look at another one:
这个抽屉有点儿紧。(zhè ge chōuti yǒu diǎnr jǐn.)
Translation hint: This drawer is a bit tight.
You can also use it with measure words, which you'll do a lot in Chinese. For 抽屉, the most common measure word is 个 (gè).
我需要一个新抽屉。(wǒ xūyào yī chōuti.)
Translation hint: I need a new drawer.
What kind of furniture has 抽屉? Lots of things! Desks, dressers, cabinets, nightstands... you name it. If it has a pull-out compartment for storage, it has 抽屉. So, you might combine it with other words to be more specific, like 书桌抽屉 (shūzhuō chōuti) for a 'desk drawer', or 衣柜抽屉 (yīguì chōuti) for a 'wardrobe drawer'. But usually, just 抽屉 is enough in context.
Here are some common ways to use 抽屉:
打开抽屉 (dǎkāi chōuti): Open the drawer
关上抽屉 (guānshang chōuti): Close the drawer
抽屉里 (chōuti lǐ): Inside the drawer
把东西放进抽屉 (bǎ dōngxi fàng jìn chōuti): Put things into the drawer
It's an A2 word, which means it's pretty foundational. You'll definitely want to have this one down. Practice saying it, and try to use it when you're talking about your own home or office. It's a great practical word to add to your vocabulary.
Alright, let's get into how to actually use 抽屉 (chōuti) – that's 'drawer' – in Chinese sentences. It's a straightforward noun, so you'll find it behaves pretty much as you'd expect. No weird tricks here, just practical usage.
§ Basic Usage: Subject or Object
Most of the time, 抽屉 will be either the subject of your sentence (the 'doer' or 'being') or the object (what's being 'done to' or 'acted upon').
这个抽屉坏了。
Translation hint: This drawer is broken.
我打开了抽屉。
Translation hint: I opened the drawer.
§ Using with Prepositions (or 'Coverbs')
When you want to talk about *where* something is in relation to a drawer, you'll use prepositions. In Chinese, these are often called 'coverbs.' The most common ones you'll use with 抽屉 are:
- 在 (zài) - at, in, on (for location)
- 从 (cóng) - from
- 把 (bǎ) - to handle (marks the object that an action is performed upon)
§ 在 (zài) - In the Drawer / On the Drawer
This is super common. You'll use 在 to indicate something is *inside* or *on* the drawer. If you need to be more specific about 'inside' vs. 'on top,' you can add directional words.
我的手机在抽屉里。
Translation hint: My phone is in the drawer.
笔在抽屉上面。
Translation hint: The pen is on top of the drawer.
§ 从 (cóng) - From the Drawer
If you're taking something *out* of a drawer, you'll use 从 (cóng).
他从抽屉里拿出一本书。
Translation hint: He took a book out from the drawer.
§ 把 (bǎ) - Putting into the Drawer
When you're putting something *into* the drawer, especially if you're emphasizing the object being moved, the '把' construction is really useful. The structure is: Subject + 把 + Object + Verb + 在/到 + Location.
请把钥匙放在抽屉里。
Translation hint: Please put the keys in the drawer.
§ Measure Words for Drawers
Like many nouns in Chinese, 抽屉 often needs a measure word when you're counting them. The most common measure word for a drawer is 个 (gè).
- DEFINITION
- 个 (gè) - a general measure word.
这个桌子有三个抽屉。
Translation hint: This table has three drawers.
That's the rundown on using 抽屉. Keep practicing these sentence structures, and you'll be using it naturally in no time.
§ What 抽屉 (chōuti) Means
- DEFINITION
- Drawer. This is a common noun you'll hear and use often, especially when talking about furniture, offices, or even in a school setting.
§ Hearing 抽屉 (chōuti) at Work
In a work environment, you'll hear 抽屉 all the time. Think about desks, filing cabinets, or even kitchen areas in an office. It's a fundamental word for describing office furniture and where things are kept.
请把文件放在第二个抽屉里。(Please put the documents in the second drawer.)
Someone might ask you to find something in a drawer, or tell you where to store something. You might also use it to ask where office supplies are kept.
我的笔在抽屉里。(My pen is in the drawer.)
§ Using 抽屉 (chōuti) at School
Just like in an office, classrooms often have desks with drawers. Students use drawers for their supplies, and teachers use them for class materials. You'll hear this word frequently if you're attending classes in China or interacting with Chinese students.
把书放进你的课桌抽屉里。(Put your book in your desk drawer.)
Sometimes, teachers might refer to the drawers in a cabinet for storing art supplies or other classroom necessities.
粉笔在下面的抽屉里。(The chalk is in the bottom drawer.)
§ 抽屉 (chōuti) in News and General Conversation
While not a word you'd typically see in major news headlines, 抽屉 can appear in more informal news segments or human-interest stories, especially if they involve domestic settings, organizational tips, or even crime reports where items are found or hidden in drawers.
他把重要的文件藏在书桌的秘密抽屉里。(He hid the important documents in a secret drawer of his desk.)
In general conversation, you'll hear it any time someone is talking about putting things away, organizing, or looking for something in furniture.
你检查过那个抽屉吗？(Did you check that drawer?)
这个柜子有三个抽屉。(This cabinet has three drawers.)
§ Don't confuse 抽屉 with other storage items
Many beginners mix up words for different kinds of storage furniture. While 抽屉 (chōuti) specifically means 'drawer,' it's easy to mistakenly use it for a cabinet or a box. Let's clarify the differences.
- DEFINITION
- 抽屉 (chōuti): A sliding box-like container that is part of a piece of furniture, such as a desk, chest of drawers, or cabinet, used for storing things.
Contrast this with:
柜子 (guìzi): Cabinet or cupboard. This is a general term for a piece of furniture with shelves or drawers, often with doors.
箱子 (xiāngzi): Box or trunk. This refers to a container, usually with a lid, that is not typically built into furniture.
Here's why it matters:
我把书放在抽屉里了。(Wǒ bǎ shū fàng zài chōuti lǐ le.) - I put the book in the drawer.
If you said 我把书放在柜子里了 (Wǒ bǎ shū fàng zài guìzi lǐ le), it would mean you put the book in the cabinet, which is broader. If you said 我把书放在箱子里了 (Wǒ bǎ shū fàng zài xiāngzi lǐ le), it would imply a loose box, not part of a desk or dresser.
§ Using the correct measure word
Another common error is using the wrong measure word for 抽屉. The most common and natural measure word for 抽屉 is 个 (gè).
这张桌子有三个抽屉。(Zhè zhāng zhuōzi yǒu sān gè chōuti.) - This table has three drawers.
While other measure words might seem to fit conceptually for 'items' or 'pieces', 个 (gè) is the standard and most natural choice here. Using something like 条 (tiáo) for 'strip' or 'long item' would be incorrect and sound very awkward to a native speaker.
§ Forgetting the verb to 'pull out' or 'open'
You don't just 'do' a drawer; you 'open' it or 'pull it out'. In Chinese, specific verbs are important. You can't just say 'drawer is open'. You need to use a verb like 拉 (lā) for pull, or 打开 (dǎkāi) for open.
拉开 (lākāi): To pull open. This is very common for drawers.
打开 (dǎkāi): To open. This is more general and can also be used for drawers.
请把抽屉拉开。(Qǐng bǎ chōuti lākāi.) - Please pull open the drawer.
他打开了最下面的抽屉。(Tā dǎkāi le zuì xiàmiàn de chōuti.) - He opened the bottom drawer.
§ Not using the correct prepositions for location
When talking about where something is in relation to a drawer, prepositions like 里 (lǐ - inside) are crucial. Simply saying 'on the drawer' (在抽屉上 - zài chōuti shàng) when you mean 'inside the drawer' is a common mistake.
我的手机在抽屉里。(Wǒ de shǒujī zài chōuti lǐ.) - My phone is in the drawer.
If you said 我的手机在抽屉上 (Wǒ de shǒujī zài chōuti shàng), it would mean your phone is on top of the closed drawer, which is a different meaning.
豆知識
The character 屉 (tì) itself can also refer to things like a steamer tray or an insole for a shoe, highlighting its general meaning of a flat, removable layer or container.
発音ガイド
- Don't forget the 'ch' sound is like in 'cheese'.
- The 'u' sound is similar to 'oo' in 'moon'.

使い方
The word 抽屉 (chōuti) literally means 'pull-out container' and is the standard way to refer to a drawer in Mandarin Chinese. It's used for drawers in desks, dressers, cabinets, etc. You can combine it with other nouns to specify the type of drawer, like 书桌抽屉 (shūzhuō chōuti) for 'desk drawer' or 衣柜抽屉 (yīguì chōuti) for 'wardrobe drawer.' When talking about putting something in a drawer, you'd use verbs like 放 (fàng - to put) or 塞 (sāi - to stuff). For taking something out, you'd use 从...拿出来 (cóng...ná chūlái - to take out from...).
A common mistake for English speakers is trying to directly translate 'drawer' into something like 'draw box.' Remember, 抽屉 is a specific word for this item. Another mistake is incorrect measure words. While not strictly wrong to omit a measure word when speaking generally, if you're counting drawers, the most common measure word is 个 (gè). For example, 一个抽屉 (yī gè chōuti - one drawer). Avoid using verbs that don't fit the context, like using 开 (kāi - to open) directly with 抽屉 in the sense of 'opening a drawer.' Instead, you'd say 拉开抽屉 (lā kāi chōuti - to pull open the drawer).
ヒント
Basic Meaning
抽屉 (chōuti) refers to a drawer, a box-like storage compartment that slides in and out of furniture.
Common Usage
You'll most often hear this word when talking about furniture like a desk (书桌 shūzhuō), dresser (梳妆台 shūzhuāngtái), or cabinet (柜子 guìzi).
Measuring Drawers
To count drawers, use the measure word 个 (gè). For example, 一个抽屉 (yī gè chōuti) means 'one drawer'.

Common verbs used with 抽屉 include 拉开 (lākāi - to pull open), 打开 (dǎkāi - to open), 关上 (guānshang - to close), and 放进 (fàngjìn - to put into).

To say you put something in a drawer: 我把书放在抽屉里。 (Wǒ bǎ shū fàng zài chōuti lǐ. - 'I put the book in the drawer.')

よくある質問
10 問Think of 抽 (chōu) as 'to pull' or 'to draw out,' and 屉 (tì) as a flat tray or compartment. So, you're literally 'pulling out a tray' – a drawer! Visualizing the action helps connect the word to its meaning.
You can say things like:
• 我的钥匙在抽屉里。 (Wǒ de yàoshi zài chōuti lǐ.) - My keys are in the drawer.
• 请把书放回抽屉。 (Qǐng bǎ shū fàng huí chōuti.) - Please put the book back in the drawer.
• 这个桌子有三个抽屉。 (Zhège zhuōzi yǒu sān gè chōuti.) - This table has three drawers.
Not really in common usage. 抽屉 almost exclusively refers to a drawer. You might see 屉 used in other contexts for a 'compartment' or 'liner' but it's much less common than 抽屉 itself.
Yes, the most common measure word for 抽屉 is 个 (gè).
• 一个抽屉 (yī gè chōuti) - one drawer.
• 两个抽屉 (liǎng gè chōuti) - two drawers.
You can use 拉开抽屉 (lākāi chōuti).
• 他拉开抽屉找笔。 (Tā lākāi chōuti zhǎo bǐ.) - He pulled open the drawer to look for a pen.
For 'close a drawer,' you'd typically say 关上抽屉 (guānshàng chōuti).
• 请把抽屉关上。 (Qǐng bǎ chōuti guānshàng.) - Please close the drawer.
While the word 抽屉 itself is general, you can add adjectives to specify types. For example, 文件抽屉 (wénjiàn chōuti) means 'file drawer,' and 小抽屉 (xiǎo chōuti) means 'small drawer.' The word 抽屉 remains the same.
抽屉 (chōuti) is specifically a drawer, something you pull out. 柜子 (guìzi) is a general term for a cabinet or cupboard, which can contain drawers, shelves, or just open space. A 柜子 can have many 抽屉 inside it.
抽 (chōu) is a first tone, high and flat. 屉 (tì) is a fourth tone, falling. Pay attention to the tones to get it right. You can find many online dictionaries with audio pronunciation to help.
It's not very common to use 抽屉 figuratively in the same way English might use 'drawer' for a secret compartment of the mind. In Chinese, it almost always refers to a physical drawer.
