Post by Andrew Chan »

Dear everybody,

Hi! Just wrote to ask what the difference is between literary pronounciation of a character with a minnan pronounciation of the character when I click the minnan entry.Does literary pronounciation only apply to personal names? In addressing people's names or place names,which one should I use?can I use the ordinary minnan pronounciation on this sites CCDICT? thanks
