	Zhuyin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zhuyin Zimu was renamed to Zhuyin Fuhao in April 1930.
		On the Chinese mainland, Zhuyin Fuhao was superseded by the pinyin system promulgated by the People's Republic of China, although the pronunciation of words in standard dictionaries are given in both pinyin and Zhuyin.
		Zhuyin and Pinyin are based on the same Mandarin pronunciations, hence there is a mostly 1-to-1 mapping between the two systems.

		The zhuyin consists of a few dozens of letters that are modified from the Chinese characters, such as ㄅ, ㄆ, ㄇ, and ㄈ.
		As a matter of fact, zhuyin's tone marks are predecessors of those in pinyin.
		The reason for the success of zhuyin is precisely that the spelling and non-spelling elements are represented by different sets of symbols, which facilitates smooth spelling process, hence is preferred by native speakers of Chinese.

		One of the best things you can do for your Chinese is learn Zhuyin Fuhao (注音符號) and read 200-300+ page books published in Taiwan written for elementary school students from grades 1-6.
		Each and every character in these books has Zhuyin next to it so when you come across something new or something you've forgotten, or for poyinzi (破音字), you can at least read that character.
		The paperback version is not only cheaper, but also printed vertically which I find especially important with Zhuyin to the right of every character.
