뜻
A question asking about quantity.
문화적 배경
In the bazaar, asking 'Chand ta' is often the start of a bulk-buying negotiation. If you buy more 'ta', you expect a better price. When asking about children, it's polite to follow up the answer with 'Khoda hefzeshoon kone' (May God protect them). Some people avoid counting things like money or pieces of food out loud in front of others to avoid 'Cheshm-e Zakhm' (the evil eye). Bread is sacred. When you ask for 'Chand ta', the baker handles the bread with great respect. Never put bread on the floor.
The Finger Rule
If you can point and count it with your fingers, use 'Chand ta'.
No Plurals!
This is the #1 mistake. Never say 'Chand ta sib-ha'. Keep it 'Chand ta sib'.

Polite People
When asking about people you don't know well, use 'Chand nafar' to sound more educated and respectful.
Answering
When you answer, use the same 'ta' structure: 'Do ta', 'Se ta', etc.

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문No, for money (price), use 'Cheghadr' or 'Chande'. However, you can use 'Chand ta' for individual coins or bills (e.g., 'Chand ta اسکناس؟').
In spoken Persian, yes, it sounds very natural. In formal writing, it is often omitted.
You can just say 'Chand ta?' while pointing. It's perfectly correct.
Use 'Chand nafar' for a more polite and standard approach, though 'Chand ta' is okay with close friends.
No. For 'How many hours', use 'Chand saat'. For 'What time is it', use 'Saat chande?'.
No, 'ta' is universal. It doesn't matter if the noun is masculine, feminine (not that Persian has gender!), big, or small.
It's two words 'Chand ta', but in fast speech, it sounds like one word 'Chanta'.
Yes! 'Chand ta sib khardam' means 'I bought a few apples'.
The formal version is 'adad' for objects and 'nafar' for people.
Only if they are countable, like 'a few ideas' (chand ta fekr) or 'a few problems' (chand ta moshkel).
