Can't distinguish high falling tone from high level tone
LawranceFung opened this issue · comments
Officially, Yale romanization should distinguish high level tone ā from high falling tone à (jyutping doesn't). Would it be possible to make pycantonese do that?
Hello, as of pycantonese v3.0.0, the only spot where Yale romanization appears in pycantonese is the jyutping_to_yale function. Since (as you've pointed out) jyutping itself doesn't distinguish high-level tone and high-falling tone, the jyutping_to_yale function cannot make this distinction.
Let me know if you have other questions!
