Traditional Chinese phonology divides the syllable into an Initial and Final. The
6 q& h: P/ ]" \' v2 l# x9 BInitial is the way a syllable begins, usually with a consonant. The Final is the
! L( h! r8 }# S; esyllable minus the Initial. For example, in ta, chi, jin, chuang, the Finals are a, i, in,7 `# @' S3 S1 T g( `+ N% b
and uang, respectively. The longest form of a Final consists of three parts: a medial

retroflex suffixes, sometimes two endings, as in the er-sound ming’er ‘tomorrow’).
