Introduction

The Pinyin system is a phonetic alphabet system of the Chinese language that uses the Roman letters to form the sounds of the Chinese language.

The pinyin of a Chinese character is a complete syllable with a tone, and it represents the pronunciation of the Chinese character. E.g.: The pinyin of the Chinese character埃is āi, and that of the Chinese character爱is ài.

Under the same complete syllable, usually there is some (not more than 5) similar pinyin with different tones. For example, under the syllable ɑi, there is similar pinyin āi ái ǎi ài. And at the same time pinyin āi ái ǎi ài represents the pronunciation of different Chinese characters (e.g.埃 癌 矮 爱).

This ebook provides many simple Chinese characters (with such similar pinyin), their corresponding pinyin, English meanings and pronunciation audio. A learner of the Chinese language can use this ebook to learn pinyin and its standard pronunciation besides increasing his vocabulary of Chinese characters.
