<< review queue entry 89058 - submitted by 'monigeria' >> << follow-up of change log entry 97267 >> << review queue entry 88313 - submitted by 'polaris' >> 新币 is certainly more common colloquially Has to be capital "X," no? ---- 燧原科技这次次IPO拟募资60亿元（人民币，下同，11亿新元），发行10%至15%的股份，募资所得将用于第五代和第六代AI晶片系列产品研发及产业化项目，以及先进人工智能软硬件协同创新项目。 https://www.zaobao.com/news/china/story20260710-9343631 新元 xīnyuán @ 《中華語文大辭典〉 1.新加坡的法定貨幣。一般以「S$」符號表示。舊稱「坡幣」。也作「新幣」、「新加坡元」。 2.新春元旦；一年的第一天。 [例]～將至。 3.〈書〉新的年號。 [例]及用四分以來，考之行度，密於太初，是又～，效於今者也（《續漢書志‧第二‧律曆志中》）。 新元 xīnyuán @ 《全球华语大词典》 新加坡元的简称。 ----------------------- Editor: I would not capitalize it. 新加坡 is a proper noun, so its pinyin is capitalized, but 新元 is a common currency name, not a proper name. Currency names are generally common nouns: hence "Singapore dollar", not "Singapore Dollar", and 人民幣 is written rénmínbì. Derivation from an abbreviated proper name does not by itself mean that capitalization is required. Similarly, 歐元 is uncapitalized (ōuyuán) in New Age, Wiktionary, New Century and CC-CEDICT, even though 歐 derives from 歐洲. 美元 is likewise uncapitalized in CC-CEDICT and New Age. I am aware that other dictionaries vary in their application of pinyin capitalization rules in cases like this. * * * The submitted trad form 新币 is incorrect; it should be 新幣. |
