重量

• 拼音: zhòng liàng
• 汉字拆解: 重 = 千 (thousand) + 里 (unit of distance), heavy; 量 = 日 (sun) + 里 (inside), to measure

含义

Weight; heaviness. The measure of how heavy something is.

Used in everyday and technical contexts. 净重量 means net weight; 毛重量 means gross weight. 重量级 means heavyweight (in boxing or figuratively for important people). Contrast with 质量 (mass in physics — technically different from weight). In Chinese shopping and logistics, 重量 is the standard term for weight.
