Capitalization

[edit]

@Wyang, Justinrleung, Tooironic Should the initial letter of pinyin of this word be capitalized? Dokurrat (talk) 03:26, 14 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Umm, I'm not sure. Xiandai Hanyu Cidian capitalises, while Xiandai Hanyu Guifan Cidian doesn't. Should it still be capitalised inside a word, as in 入關入关 (rùguān), 土澳 (Tǔ'ào)? Wyang (talk) 04:20, 14 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Dokurrat, Wyang: I don't think Xiandai Hanyu Guifan Cidian even capitalizes anything, so it's probably not a good reference to consider. I think it's capitalized in Xiandai Hanyu Cidian not because of 關 itself, but because 關內 refers to a region. We can probably follow Xiandai Hanyu Cidian on this, other than the fact that this may not necessarily refer to the specific region (Guoyu Cidian: 泛指關口以內的地方。). — justin(r)leung (t...) | c=› } 16:33, 14 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
