Reading & tones

Schematic citation-tone diagrams from the source numbers. These are not recordings or predictions of connected speech.

Tone and syllable differences from Unihan

  • 行 has the reading hong4 here; Unihan’s citation reading is hang4. Different syllable across these source readings. CC-Canto also lists 行 hong4 as its own entry.
  • 會 is read wui2 here; Unihan’s citation reading is wui6. Same syllable, different tone across these source readings. CC-Canto also lists 會 wui2 as its own entry.

Computed by zimai: each syllable of the CC-Canto word reading is compared with Unihan 17.0.0 kCantonese for its character. The comparison does not say why a reading differs (a changed tone, 變音, a reading tied to one meaning, or a source variant).

Same syllable, six tones

Characters whose customary Unihan reading (kCantonese) is this syllable in each tone, chosen as in the tone atlas (2013 standard level, then the number of CC-CEDICT words they form), with CC-Canto 2017's meaning for that reading; a dash means no catalogue character has that reading. Checked syllables (-p, -t, -k) normally carry tones 1, 3 and 6. Character readings, not word readings; no frequency implied.
