no it doesn't.  see meaning for 間・けん

See below.

Whilst two rooms deep in the small house may be some 12 feet, as far as I csn tell from another entry in the your dictionary "二間" means two rooms. I suppose that one could add in brackets the distance after, e.g., "Two rooms deep (i.e., about twelve feet deep)"

Entry created

I think it can go. Rene had doubts back in 2011, and I should have paid more attention then.

I can't find an instance of this that isn't preceded by a number (and it's almost always 2).
Someone submitted 二間続き as an entry, which I approved, and now I'm wondering if this entry is really needed.

OK, let's run with that.

nikk

without any references supplied for this meaning, i'm still entirely unconvinced that it's a correct parsing.  the first few pages of google hits as well as nikkoku give this meaning

I read this in a Japan Society handout; but that does not mean accuracy of usage.

As to the Google references, there were many examples of the form which I gave. I could copy a selection if you would wish.

I wondered if the reading [also picked up on the Google search] is the clue to usage. If the "間" were to be read as a stand alone contribution to the sentence, then in that case would the "ま" be the appropriate usage?
