tóu piào
vote
In Chinese, 'vote' is translated as '投票' (tóu piào). It is often used in the same contexts as the English word 'vote'—in relation to elections, decisions, and choices, particularly within a political or organizational setting. As is the same verb-noun dual-purpose usage in English, the Chinese '投票' can mean the act of voting itself, or refer to the ballot or vote that is cast.
