请给我们一张两人桌。

Word-by-word breakdown

This follows the standard request pattern of asking someone to give you a specific quantity of an item.

• 请给 (qǐng gěi): please give
• 我们 (wǒ men): us
• 一张 (yì zhāng): one [measure word]
• 两人桌 (liǎng rén zhuō): two-person table

Measure word for tables

In Mandarin, you cannot just say 'one table'; you must use a measure word. 张 is required here, as it is the standard classifier for flat, broad objects with a surface, such as tables, paper, and beds.

Multiple third tones

This phrase starts with three consecutive third-tone syllables: 请, 给, and 我. Instead of applying the standard two-syllable rule blindly, this group is typically pronounced as 'qǐng géi wǒ' (3-2-3) to maintain natural rhythm. Additionally, the number 一 changes to a fourth tone (yì) because it precedes a first-tone syllable.

Notes

Use this standard structure to request a table for a specific number of people upon arriving at a restaurant.
