Thanks. In Japan they do nLDK: n Bedroom + Living/Dining/Kitchen (1LDK, 2LDK).−colbyolson17yI believe he means three and a half bedroom, though normally they also give the number of bathrooms too.

The three rooms could be 2 bedrooms and a kitchen but it's more likely a bedroom, a living room and a kitchen.
