Pronunciation Tips

“Ø” as the second half of a pinyin syllable means in the Marilyn Method system that there simply is no second half. Pronounce the start of the syllable on its own without dedicated ending.

The only exemption is “er”, which is arbitrarily assigned to the initial syllable “Ø” and ending syllable “Ø”.
