How to use it
ปริมาณbpà-rí-maan is quantity or volume, for things you measure rather than count: rain, water, food, medicine. Food reviewers praise generous portions with ปริมาณเยอะbpà-rí-maan yóe, and packaging shows ปริมาณสุทธิbpà-rí-maan sùt-tí, the net weight or volume.
For things you can count, such as people or cars, the word is จำนวนjam-nuan.
