Ni hao Benny aka the best mandarin teacher in the world? Perhaps you can help me with this. For cloth sizes do Chinese people used words like small, medium, large, and extra large or do they just the size number? Hao4 for shoe sizes but what about clothes? Can you give me some examples of clothes sizes?

Hi James.

In fact, you can still use “S, L XL, XXL, XXXL” in China.

Also you can say:

1. xiǎo hào = small size
2. zhōng hào = medium size
3. dà hào = big size
4. tè dà hào = super big size
