What does 10:30sc mean?

Does it mean 10 rows of 30 stitches ? Just started crocheting Dec 27th, I bought a beginners crochet kit just to make a few tiny animals to try it out.

I know some of the basic stitches already, but a few abbreviations I’m still trying to work out. In the beginners kit it has QR codes to videos, but they’re in like China or Japanese and the yarn and hook are so small and she’s going a bit faster than most videos that I can’t really see what’s happening lol

Thanks in advance !!

I think it’s a ratio, maybe?

That isn’t a standard instruction, I have no idea what that means. Maybe a typo and it should be r10:30sc which would mean 30 single crochets in row 10? If not, and depending on how reliable this seller is, it could be an AI hallunciation?

It doesn’t look like 10 extra rows to me, maybe 8 but it must be 10 rows of 30

We have a whole discussion on chinese patterns. That is, assuming the above is Chinese.

Would you like me to link it for you?
