m=x,y,z,A=a,B=b,C=c

Mandarin Pinyin. To show tone sandhi for 一 and 不, use 一 or 不 instead of pinyin.

Chinese characters are used instead of pinyin for characters that have different pronunciations due to regional variation, e.g. 危, 血.

# can be used to block sequential tone 3 + 3 sandhis (e.g. in 紙老虎／纸老虎 (zhǐlǎohǔ), 一把好手 (yī bǎ hǎoshǒu)).

h=pfs=x/y/z;hrs=x/y/z;gd=x/y/z

Hakka Pha̍k-fa-sṳ (Sixian), Hakka Romanization System (Hailu), and Guangdong Romanization (Meixian)

For Pha̍k-fa-sṳ, n: (Northern Sixian) or s: (Southern Sixian) can be placed before a pronunciation to specify the dialect. ns: can be placed before a pronunciation to suppress the generation of an erroneous Southern Sixian pronunciation (e.g. 品格 (phín-kiet)).

For the Hakka Romanization System, the dialect(s) must be specified for every pronunciation. Currently, only Hailu (h:) is supported.

j=x/y/z

Jin Wiktionary Romanization

mb=x/y/z

Northern Min Kienning Colloquial Romanized. Minor modifications that affect IPA generation have been made.

• Pronunciations that cannot be inferred from KCR are indicated using a greater-than symbol > followed by the actual pronunciation, such as 喙皮 and 妹仔.

md=x/y/z

Eastern Min BUC. Minor modifications that affect IPA generation have been made.

• Putting an asterisk * before an initial blocks lenition, such as 瑞士 and 茉莉花茶.
• Putting an exclamation mark ! after the syllable blocks rhyme change, such as 更更.
• Putting a backslash \ after the syllable indicates that diminutive tone sandhi should be invoked for that syllable, such as 鍋鍋／锅锅.
• Pronunciations that cannot be inferred from BUC are indicated using a greater-than symbol > followed by the actual pronunciation, such as 食 and 茉莉.

mn=x/y/z

|Xa=

Pronunciation file for the variety X (i.e. m for Mandarin, c for Cantonese, etc.). If equals y, then links to zh-PINYIN.ogg for Mandarin and xxx-CHARACTERS.ogg for other varieties (where xxx is the ISO language code for the topolect); else, links to the argument.

|X_note=

A note directly below the pronunciation information for variety X.

|dial=

Dialectal pronunciations (displayed by default if available). If equals n, then display is suppressed; if a number, then displays corresponding pronunciation.

|mc=

Middle Chinese reconstructions. If equals y, then displays all readings. For character entries, if a number or a list of numbers separated by commas , or plus signs +, then displays corresponding reading(s). For multi-character entries, each character's readings, each formatted like a single character (but only with plus signs), is separated with commas ,. See 字 (zì), 我, 好, 會／会, 要, 中國／中国 (Zhōngguó), 中華／中华 (Zhōnghuá), 遊戲／游戏 (yóuxì) for examples.

|oc=

Old Chinese reconstructions (Baxter–Sagart and Zhengzhang). If equals y, then displays all readings. For character entries, if one number, then displays the corresponding reading in each reconstruction; if two numbers separated by a comma ,, then displays the Baxter–Sagart reading with the first number and the Zhengzhang reading with the second number (if one doesn't exist, then use n instead of a number); more than one reading number in either can be separated by a plus sign +. For multi-character entries, each character's readings, each formatted like a single character, is separated with semicolons ;. See 字 (zì), 我, 好, 會／会, 要, 中國／中国 (Zhōngguó), 中華／中华 (Zhōnghuá), 遊戲／游戏 (yóuxì) for examples.

cat=x,y,X:z

Parts of speech. See the table pos_aliases_cat in Module:zh-pron for aliases of category names that can be used as valid input for |cat=. X: (see |Xa= above) can be placed before a part of speech to specify a particular variety of Chinese; see 緊／紧 (jǐn) as an example of c:part being used to sort 緊 as a Cantonese-only particle.

Since a unified Chinese approach is agreed upon, the presence of definitions in these parameters will categorize the page into the appropriate variety categories.
