<< review queue entry 64517 >> At least the other sources I am using have yi as fourth tone ---------------------------------- Editor: Short answer: We indicate 1st tone, but if you know the tone sandhi rules, you know it's pronounced as 4th tone. We use the following convention, like many other sources: "Raw tones should be used: Tone sandhi is not indicated" https://cc-cedict.org/wiki/format:syntax In particular, we use the convention that [yi1] is used to indicate the pinyin for 一, even though the tone, as pronounced, varies. 一 is "2nd tone when followed by a 4th tone, and 4th tone when followed by any other tone. Examples: ... 一般 (yī + bān > yì bān)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_sandhi#Mandarin_Chinese |
