Unproofread Imitate Bk. Pīnyīn Web Material Up to the End of Ch. 7 Added

Unproofread Imitate book Pīnyīn web material up to the end of Chapter 7 has been added to:

The proofread portion of the above material extends from the beginning to the Introduction, paragraph 9. Material that has not been proofread is rendered with a lower-contrast grey background. While unproofread material is not as good as proofread material, it is generally better than nothing.


Here is a list of reasons I decided to proceed with working on Pīnyīn and Pīnyīn-English material for the Imitate book:

Note that:

  • The material in the above resources has been carefully rendered and proofread. (Any unproofread material is rendered with a lower-contrast grey background.)
  • Since the Imitate book may get revised, the material in the above resources has been checked against the Chinese Imitate book material on the WOL. If you notice that some changes need to be made to the material in the above resources to bring it in line with revisions to the Imitate book, please email me to let me know.
  • The linked full text in Pīnyīn of all the cited scriptures is included in the above resources.
  • The above resources are mobile-friendly—they are quite legible and usable on everything from desktop/laptop PCs and Macs to iPads and other tablets to iPhones and other smartphones.
  • In the above resources, links are used extensively to make it quick and easy to get around in the material, drastically reducing the amount of manual scrolling needed.
  • The above resources contain links for pictures and for official Mandarin MP3 audio files.
  • The Offline Viewing sections of the above resources explain how to view them offline. Of course, in addition to being downloadable and viewable offline, the web pages of the above web resources can also be printed out from your web browser.
  • Turning mobile devices to landscape orientation causes the text in the above resources to become large-print text.
  • For your convenience, a short link is available for the above resources.

Also, the introductions explain why it’s good to use Pīnyīn as a writing system on its own. (The text explaining that has been revised. Check it out.)


The full Pīnyīn text of all the cited scriptures in the new material has been added to:
