About Bopomofo ㄅㄆㄇㄈ

A group about Mandarin Phonetic Symbols (MPS) or 注音符號 ( Zhùyīn Fúhào / ㄓㄨˋ ㄧㄣ ㄈㄨˊ ㄏㄠˋ ).

A phonetic system used in Taiwan for transcribing Chinese, especially Mandarin (sometimes Taiwanese), for people learning to read, write or speak Mandarin.

Usually call Bopomofo ( ㄅㄆㄇㄈ ) after the first four symbols used by this phonetic system.

Bopomofo consists of 37 symbols derived from Chinese characters: 21 initials (consonants) and 16 finals (vowels, diphthongs, triphthongs or vowels + n or ng). Finals can stand alone and some initials can as well.

When combined with characters, Bopomofo is usually written on the right of each character.
