Is "Standard Cantonese Pinyin" its official name in English? What is its name in Chinese? Thanks. — Instantnood 20:29, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

In Chinese, it was often called as 《常用字廣州話讀音表》拼音方案, 「教院式」拼音方案, but no fix English name (since the Education Department / EMB just called it in Chinese) till the publish of 《廣州話正音字典》by 詹伯慧. For example, an Cantonese input Method by CCCL. Some data calls this English name in its instruction leaflet. I have data in paper but no scanner or DC now >.<.

Alright. Please kindly fix it when you've got its exact official English name. :-) — Instantnood 18:22, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Are "Yu Binzhao" and "Zhan Bohui" their official names in English? — Instantnood 20:31, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

Still finding. These two names are used in the databeas of Hong Kong Academic Library Link. I will update when I fine it^^

Similar to my comment above, please kindly fix them when you've got their names. Thanks. — Instantnood 18:22, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Tone marks

Someone just posted to a discussion page and gave Cantonese pinyin with Mandarin pinyin-like tone marks (accents, macron, etc.). Is there such a system for Cantonese pinyin, using diacritics rather than numerals? Badagnani 07:22, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

It's possible to use tone marks instead of numbers for the Yale romanization. There are three diacritics, and they are combined with the letter 'h' to give 6 tones. --Yuje 02:52, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Names of tones

Does it make sense to transcribe the tone names in to Mandarin Pinyin, if they are the names for the Cantonese - or at least this page is about the cantonese tones... what about adding Standard Cantonese Pinyin to them instead or additionally? SuperMidget 17:08, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Seconding the change to Cantonese Pinyin. I would do it myself if I knew how to. Vampyricon (talk) 22:23, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

I did end up changing it using this page: zh:粵語拼音對照表. Vampyricon (talk) 22:38, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
