	Chinese Pinyin: Learn Chinese Hanyu Pinyin, Free Pinyin Pronunciation
		Pinyin, short for Hanyu Pinyin, which means "phonetic notation" or "phonetic symbols" while Pin means "spell(ing)" and Yin means "sound(s)"), is a system of romanization (phonemic notation and transcription to Roman script) for Standard Mandarin.
		Pinyin is a romanization and not an anglicization; that is, it uses Roman letters to represent sounds in Standard Mandarin Chinese.
		Since Pinyin is based only on the sounds of Mandarin Chinese, Pinyin is unsuitable for use for speakers of some other Chinese spoken dialects, because the sounds do not correspond to their speech.

	Pinyin
		Pinyin (拼音 pin1 yin1) literally means "spelling according to sounds" in Mandarin and usually refers to Hanyu pinyin (汉语拼音, literal meaning: "Han language pinyin"), which is a system of romanization (phonetic notation and transliteration to roman script) for Mandarin used in the People's Republic of China.
		Pinyin was approved in 1958 and adopted in 1979 by its government.
		Much of the controversy centered on issues of national identity with proponents of Chinese reunification favoring the hanyu pinyin system which is used on the Mainland and proponents of Taiwan independence favoring the use of tongyong pinyin.

		Pinyin (拼音, pīnyīn) literally means "join (together) sounds" (a less literal translation being "phoneticize", "spell" or "transcription") in Chinese and usually refers to Hànyǔ Pīnyīn (汉语拼音, literal meaning: "Han language pinyin"), which is a system of romanization (phonetic notation and transliteration to roman script) for Standard Mandarin used in the People's Republic of China.
		Pinyin was approved in 1958 and adopted in 1979 by its government.
		It is important to maintain the distinction that pinyin is a romanization and not an anglicization; that is, it is equally applicable for transliteration into any language that uses a roman alphabet, but that the precise pronunciation need not match that of any of these languages.

		Hanyu Pinyin addresses this issue by employing the Latin letters customarily used for voiced stops, unneeded in Mandarin, to represent the unaspirated stops: b, p, d, t, g, k, zh/j, ch/q.
		These empty rimes are all written as -i in Hanyu Pinyin (hence undistinguishable from true i as in li), and all written as -ih in Tongyong Pinyin.
		The Pinyin vowel cluster ong is ung in Wade-Giles.

	Hanyu pinyin - Wikipedia

		Tongyong Pinyin (通用拼音, literally "Universal/General Usage Sound-combining") is the current official romanization of the Chinese language adopted by the national government (although not all local governments) of the Republic of China (on Taiwan) since late 2000, announced by the Mandarin Promotion Council of the Ministry of Education.
		Much of the controversy centered on issues of national identity with proponents of Chinese reunification favoring the hanyu pinyin system which is used on the Mainland and proponents of Taiwan independence favoring the use of tongyong pinyin, and declaring it the "Natural Pinyin" (自然拼音).
		In part because of the lack of agreement of which pinyin to use, the goal of the Ministry of Education to replace bopomofo with pinyin to teach pronunciation in elementary school remains stalled as of 2003.

	Learning Mandarin the Hanyu Pinyin way - Asian Languages - Helium - by Harry Lamer
		Hanyu Pinyin literally means "sound construction in the Han language." Hanyu refers to the Han language, which is a throwback to the Chinese Han dynasty, presumably when language and culture were standardised in Chinese history.
		The "a" in Hanyu Pinyin words ending in "-ian" are pronounced, for example, with the "aa" as in "another." Otherwise, it is usually "ah" for most other words ("yan" is an exception, pronounced the other way), even including those ending with "-iang" (notably different from "-ian").
		Hanyu Pinyin is a fairly accurate method of pronouncing Mandarin, and accurate pronounciation is always a huge step towards mastering a language.

		Nonetheless, pinyin has gained wide acceptance, and supporters believe it is useful for students of Chinese as a second language.

	Fundamental
		The HLV Pinyin System is a method of pronunciation in which there are no tone marks on the top of the latin alphabets.
		The letters h, 1, v are basically added to the end of the Hanyu Pinyin respectively to symbolize the 2nd, 3rd and 4th tones apart from keeping the 1st tone of the Hanyu Pinyin without a tone mark on the top of it.
		As this new Pinyin method is comprised of lettered tone marks, so no sign marks are to be placed on the top of a Pinyin when you write them out.

	Mutant Frog Travelogue » Blog Archive » Romanization in Taiwan
		Pinyin definitely has a number of problems, but the benefits of ANY even half-way decent standardized system absolutely outweigh the drawbacks of the complete lack of standardization that exists in Taiwan.
		Pinyin in way too many ways fails the “is this the spelling which, when pronounced by an English speaker who doesn’t study Chinese, sounds closest to the correct Chinese of any possible spellings?” Renders it insanely annoying for the occasional users.
		It’s great progress that at least Taibei is finally using standard pinyin on their signs, but with the tones it would be a lot nicer for the businessmen and tourists who just study a few weeks of Chinese before they come.

		El Tongyong Pinyin (que literalmente significa "deletreo por palabra para uso corriente") es un sistema emparentado con el Hanyu Pinyin, que fue creado en Taiwán en 1998.
		El sistema pinyin no tiene acentos (sólo algunas diéresis o apóstrofos, en cualquier caso muy escasos) y tiene algunas reglas fundamentales: nunca se puede eliminar un signo por superfluo que parezca, ni se puede unir o separar palabras a capricho.
