IPA[edit]

Why does the IPA start with a "p" when this word starts with a "b"? 71.66.97.228 03:27, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lol...Because there is no "b" sound in Mandarin. Pinyin wasn't designed like that. B in pinyin = [b] and P in pinyin = [pʰ] — [Ric Laurent] — 12:56, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
