Pinyin, also known as Hanyu Pinyin is the internationally recognised standard for romanising Mandarin Chinese. It was approved by the Chinese government in 1958 and adopted in 1979 as the basis for romanising all Chinese names and also for the teaching of Mandarin. It is used in all schools as a basic literacy tool upon which the learning of Chinese characters is based.
