How to use 票价
票价 is used for the cost of a ticket for transport, shows, museums, and events. It often appears with words like 多少 (duōshao), 贵 (guì), or 打折 (dǎzhé). Example: 去北京的火车票价是多少？(Qù Běijīng de huǒchē piàojià shì duōshao?) How much is the train fare to Beijing?
票价 combines 票 (piào), ticket, and 价 (jià), price. So it is literally the ticket's price. Picture the price printed on the ticket itself.
Common mistake: Learners often use 票价 for the price of ordinary goods. For things you buy in a shop, use 价格 (jiàgé) or 价钱 (jiàqián) instead. Also keep both syllables in fourth tone: piàojià, not piāojià.
