用法
- A prepared dose/agent, and the measure word for doses of medicine - 一剂药 (yí jì yào) one dose of medicine, 剂量 (jìliàng) dosage.
- Names functional substances by their job - 添加剂 (tiānjiājì) additive, 兴奋剂 (xīngfènjì) stimulant/doping agent, 洗涤剂 detergent.
- So the -剂 suffix reliably marks 'agent that does X'.
