      As I'm revising HYPY with ds, I realised that some HYPY has a funny notation.


      Specifically, I came across the hanzi 己 & 紧 with tilde '~' sign as the HYPY tone. What exactly does this tilde '~' sign represent? Or is it a misprint in the storybook?

      Psst, last time I never bothered about all these minor details, but nowadays this papa so on-the-ball. 👅
      not that i know off... can scan a pix to show us or not...

      btw, yr ds's exam will be on Oct 2012...u so kancheong for what....
      hahaha.....

          php & janet_lee88,


          Soli soli my mistake. After I scanned and enlarged the hanzi as suggested, I realised that the problem lies with ......... my hyperopia.

          You see, the hanzi 己 & 紧 has HYPY as ji & jin respectively; 3rd tone. But my hyperopia is so bad that the dot in 'j' combined with 'v' made it look like tilde '~' sign.

          So malu hor :oops: . Hehe

            No malu lah... all learning mah.

            When the tone is to place on top of 'i' or 'j', the dot is omitted.

                      Thanks for the encouragement. Yeah, today I learnt something new, which is that my reading glasses are no longer doing it for me, haha.

                      It's great to have the skin of a 16 yr old ...... as long as it's not like mine (I needed Oxy1000 to get rid of my commando-trained pimples during those days.)
