Do you mean to ask what is the size of the room when we use 间 as a measure word of room? It can be any size.

Hi TrainChineseJake! No 间 can be used to almost any type of room. We can also say, e.g. 一间卧室 (a bedroom).

Well 间can mean any type of room when placed with the right characters. Usually it's placed with 房。

The correct way to use 间 (jiān) in a sentence is to use it as a measure word for the smallest units of rooms, houses, etc. For example, you could say "这个小区有三百间房子 (zhège xiǎoqū yǒu sānbǎi jiān fángzi) - This neighborhood has 300 houses".

The character 间 (jiān) indeed conveys meanings related to "space between," "room," or "measure word for the smallest units of rooms, houses, etc." Here are some similar words with explanations:
1. 空间 (kōngjiān) - This term means "space" or "room," typically referring to the physical space in a three-dimensional context, such as the area within a building or an environment.
2. 间隔 (jiàngé) - This word translates to "interval" or "gap," indicating a physical or temporal separation between two points or events. It emphasizes the distance or difference between them.
3. 距离 (jùlí) - This term means "distance" and refers to the measurable space between two points. While it doesn’t directly imply a room or enclosure, it does relate to the concept of space.
