Watchtower Online Library (WOL) With Pīnyīn (Unofficial) Now Has Sidney Lau Romanization Options As Well
I guess I’ll call it this now:
These are now the options re the added Pīnyīn/Cantonese Sidney Lau romanization (set by links at the bottom of the web page):
- Pinyin [Pīnyīn ruby text over Simplified or Traditional Chinese characters]
- Sidney Lau [Sidney Lau ruby text over Simplified or Traditional Chinese characters]
- PinOnly (click/tap on More first) [Pīnyīn text only]
- LauOnly (click/tap on More first) [Sidney Lau text only]
Note that the bottom of each page of this website warns that
“This page has been processed by an unofficial browsing tool. Chinese words have added phonetics that may contain mistakes.”
In other words, the added Pīnyīn/Sidney Lau romanization on this site is unofficial, and it has not been proofread. However, while official, or at least proofread, content is more ideal, it takes much time and effort to produce, and in its absence, there are sure to be many situations in which this site’s computer-generated content will be most helpful, and most definitely better than nothing, even if it is imperfect.
A nice additional feature is that hovering your mouse pointer over or clicking or tapping on an expression produces a message displaying that expression’s English meaning.
