Several conventions exist for representing Chinese characters in the Roman alphabet.
Recently the Pinyin system was chosen as the standard thus making it difficult for those not familiar with Chinese to correlate names written in the older Wade-Giles system with the newer Pinyin system.
We hope the tables below are of assistance in the conversion of Wade-Giles transliteration into the Pinyin system and vice versa. Although care was taken preparing this table it may contain errors.
