    Chinese phonetic system consists of initials, finals, and tones. There are 21 initials, 39 finals, and 4 tones. Initials are the consonant sounds at the beginning of syllables. Finals are the vowel sounds that follow the initials. Tones refer to the pitch patterns that distinguish word meanings. Mastering the initials, finals, and tones allows learners to accurately pronounce Chinese words and understand how the phonetic symbols represent pronunciation. The goal is to eventually be able to speak simple Chinese and have basic conversations.
