English term or phrase: TYP 4 Places
The texts appear on a certain drawing. I‘m not sure if it is "位置类型", "互换类型" or something else.
TYP 2 places, TYP 8 places also appears.

Here is an image of a sample drawing found on internet which contains "TYP 4 PLACES".

Explanation:
TYP = typical, 典型、范例

TYP一般出现在多个相同的尺寸上的加注,4 places就是4处相同的意思,前面通常是尺寸或规格,如R2.7mm。这是国外图纸标注的用法。

如果翻成文本,可以意译。如果直接翻成给中国工程师看的图纸,就要用国内的规格:4-R2.7mm
