汉语拼音的声调和调号
本帖最后由 昌言 于 2021-9-28 22:59 编辑汉语拼音的声调和调号
一
汉语拼音方案在1958年公布的时候,规定声调符号是: 阴平 -,阳平 /,上声 v,
去声 \, 轻声不标.例如:
山shān 明míng 水shuǐ 秀xiù
此方案还规定这几个符号要标在音节的主要元音上.在手写的时候,声调符号的
标法没有问题.
1958年《现代汉语词典》第一版出版的时候,规定汉语拼音的轻声符号为 . ,
标在轻音音节之前.例如: 我们 wǒ.men 你们nǐ.men 他们 tā.men
但是后来汉语书籍改为横排并且计算机打字普及以后,声调符号这种标法就
非常不便了.
我主编的《简明汉语字词典》在编写的过程中,汉语拼音部分使用代用式,正式
印刷的时候才使用我们制定的拼音转换软件改为汉语拼音方案规定的声调符号,送给
印刷常厂排版。
二
我们在用通用电脑编写《简明汉语字词典》的时候,使用下面的拼音方案代用
符号。
