  8. #JourneysToTheUnderWorld (#traditionalChinese: 地獄遊記; #simplifiedChinese: 地狱游记; #pinyin: Dìyù Yóujì), also known as #VoyagesToHell, is a #Taiwanese novel describing what Yangsheng (楊生), a #planchette handler, saw and heard when he followed his master #JiGong to hell on the instruction of the #JadeEmperor. The story is about the consequences resulting from actions during the life of a person. It contains journeys made by Ji Gong.

  10. Hat jemand einen Tipp, wie ich unter #Android die vier chinesischen Betonungszeichen in #Pinyin eintippen kann?

    Also für ā, á, ǎ und à? Genauer gesagt, das erste und dritte davon.

    Ich kann zwar mit dem Pinyin-Keyboard ganz einfach die chinesischen Schriftzeichen tippen, aber für die Phonetik wär das andere manchmal auch ganz hilfreich.

  14. Does anyone know of a functional #foss #pinyin keyboard for #android or #aosp?
    I have one for Zhuyin, but while I'm still learning that I'd like to have something that allows me to type #Chinese on my phone.

  18. Idea for a mod: #GenshinImpact but all of the characters with Chinese names have them written with proper #Pinyin tones

  21. Earlier today I finished the main logic for code to convert Pinyin with tone numbers to Pinyin with tone marks. For example converting wo3 to wǒ. Soon I'll put a tool on the website for all to use. #Mandarin #Mandarinportal #Pinyin #HanyuPinyin #Chinese #WebDev #Coding

  22. what on earth is going on in this sentence? i might try to work this out for myself later, just thinking aloud for now…

    "Hong Wei Xian, a/k/a "Harry Zan," 32, and Li Li, a/k/a "Lea Li," 33, both from the People's Republic of China (PRC)" from ice.gov/news/releases/2-chines

    "a/k/a" is bizarre, but not very interesting, the names are more interesting.

    I would guess that the first names listed are the standard transcriptions of their names in #Pinyin from Simplified Chinese?

    But why is it different in their English names?

    Harry and Lea make sense, the closest common English name … but Zan is weird?

    #Taiwan uses a different system to Pinyin … but would the USA refer to them as being from the PRC? and if they were a Taiwanese spy working for the PRC to steel microchip making secrets, they'd be in Taiwan?

    Maybe Hong Kong or Macau ?

    Maybe judder easier to spell for Americans? but then a Pinyin X would be an S or Sh if you wrote it more phonetically?

    Maybe a spy alias that's not even supposed to be the same name?

  24. This must be one of the most confusing instructions I’ve so far seen.
    #duolingo #chinese #pinyin

  25. I didn't find any Chinese courses near me so I decided to try HSK books first to train my ears and learn the basics. 5 mistakes looks like a lot but it's quite difficult for my ears to hear the difference so I think it's a good progress.

  26. Any #NVDA user has a suggestion on what I can do to get #Chinese #pinyin tone markers indicated when I read by letter? Some tone markers are, for example á or à, but others aren't.

  27. In April 2024, @citizenlab found vulnerabilities in the security of cloud-based #pinyin #keyboard apps from Baidu, iFlytek, OPPO, Samsung, Tencent, Vivo, Honor, and Xiaomi that could expose keystrokes entered by a user. A network eavesdropper can completely reveal keystrokes, putting more than a billion users at risk. #DefCon32

  35. "Katze" auf Chinesisch heißt übrigens 猫 (māo).
    :blobcatadorable:

    Ja, genau wie das Geräusch was sie macht. Und es ist einfach ultra cute. Als würde die offizielle Bezeichnung für das Tier hier "Miau" heißen. SO NIEDLICH.

    @academicchatter
    I have not thought too much about the citation as more to do with identification difficulty I usually have when reading multiple #Hanzi names, becus I didnot learn to use romanised #pinyin so I even struggle to pronounce them, but it become alot easier when I see the Hanzi charaters, but I do think for Hanzi names it may be desirable to cite at full instead of just surname, for example KFChen et al instead of Chen et al?

  38. @CaffeineSam
    The #pinyin system includes a couple of arbitrary letter assignments (like the x and c), but it’s quite efficient and consistent. No need to resort to 3- or 4-letter combinations that still don’t capture the right phoneme. And where letters don’t match their English use, they often do match another language’s, e.g. the z is a German z (dz). If you’re drawing up a new phonetic system, English spelling (notoriously varied inconsistent) is a terrible place to start.

  40. So… I watched @thelinuxEXP tier list ranking video, and concluded that Fedora + KDE Plasma would be my best choice. Anyone knows how to properly get pinyin (Chinese) input on Fedora KDE ? I managed to get iBus input method but when I press Super+Space the input method doesn’t toggle between Inteligent Pinyin and the regular English input… incredible that such a feature is not working out of the box in one click… it’s Chinese, not some obscure language.
