To forestall that, I'll explain upfront. 中超, when it refers to a Chinese supermarket, is a common noun, not a proper name. Accordingly, there is a strong case that the pinyin should not be capitalized. The pinyin for 中餐 is not capitalized in any of the following dictionaries: NC, NA, PLC, K, GF, ACE, CCD and Oxford. Why not? Doesn't 中 mean "China" here? Answer: Because 中餐 is not a proper noun; it's a common noun. Similar thing in English: "macadamia" is *derived* from the name of a person, but "macadamia" itself is not the name of an entity; it's a common noun -- it's a kind of tree. macadamia Origin: Modern Latin, named after John Macadam (1827–65), Australian chemist. https://www.lexico.com/definition/macadamia "chinaware" likewise is spelled with a small "c". On the other hand, 中超, when it refers to the football league, *is* the name of an entity, so its pinyin is capitalized. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E4%B8%AD%E8%B6%85 |
