<< review queue entry 75250 - submitted by 'ivanktw3' >> [kǒuyīn] is standard taiwanese pronunciation for accent sense https://dict.concised.moe.edu.tw/dictView.jsp?ID=18354&la=0&powerMode=0 ------------------------------------ Editor: With regard to pronunciation, our main focus is the mainland standard. We do provide information on Taiwan pr. but in a low-key way – at the character level wherever possible, but also for compounds where necessary. We assume that users interested in Taiwan pr. know that, typically, words pronounced with a neutral tone on the mainland retain the original tone in Taiwan, apart from certain cases such as the 子[zi5] in words like 孩子 and 抹子. In keeping with our minimalist approach to Taiwan pr., it would make sense to note only *exceptions* to the above rule (such as 蘿蔔 and 抽搭) rather than to indicate the Taiwan pr. in all of the many cases that *do* follow the rule. We already have the following entry 口音 口音 [kou3 yin5] /voice/accent/ and cc-cedict users should assume that 口音, in these two senses, is pronounced [kou3 yin1] in Taiwan. |
