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”.

Prompt snippets

Scene setting: a modern comic book style illustration of a colossal, bustling futuristic space station. The station dominates the background; it's a masterpiece of digital art, composed of sprawling metal arches, glass observation domes, and complex docking bays, all outlined in crisp, confident black ink. Countless sleek starships, emitting bright cyan engine trails, navigate the traffic lanes. In the foreground, characters are dynamically posed on an open-air viewing platform, their faces illuminated by the reflections of the vibrant neon signage and the deep indigo space. The lighting is dramatic, with high-saturation oranges and purples from a distant nebula contrasting with cool blues. Digital rendering, sharp focus, vibrant color palette, highly detailed technical background, energetic composition.
