Onsets
- 1 = Ping tone
- 2 = Shang tone
- 3 = Qu tone
- 4 = Ru tone
The chart will use "1" on top of Baxter's notation to show that a certain condition applies only to the Ping tone (e.g. "zi1" means "zi but not ziX and ziH").

* — The onsets 非敷奉微 split from 幫滂並明 sometime between Early and Late Middle Chinese, and this split is reflected in most Chinese varieties as an opposition between labiodentals and bilabials. The conditions for the split are
- All third-deng (等) and hekou (合口) rimes
- The third-deng (等) and kaikou (開口) rimes of 東, 鍾, 尤
Notes on omitted recent changes, ongoing changes, and allophony
Note for Mandarin — Beijing:
- The following recent sound changes apply but are omitted to reduce clutter:
- z c s [ts tsʰ s] > j q x [tɕ tɕʰ ɕ] / _[i,j,y,ɥ]
- g k h [k kʰ x] > j q x [tɕ tɕʰ ɕ] / _[i,j,y,ɥ]
Note for Yue — Canton (Cantonese):
- Medial [w] is used as a fictitious phone in the onset and rime charts to explain correspondences of the velar/laryngeal onsets (all instances of medial [w] generated in the rime charts are killed in the onset chart, hence it is fictitious).
- Wherever [w] appears for Cantonese after g k h [k kʰ h] in the above chart, it refers to the fictitious [w], not the actual Cantonese phoneme [w] nor MC [w].
- Up until the early 20th century, Cantonese had alveolo-palatal sibilants [tɕ tɕʰ ɕ] corresponding to Middle Chinese retroflex and palatal onsets, but these have since merged into the plain alveolar sibilants /ts tsʰ s/.
- /ts tsʰ s/ may be pronounced palatalized, especially before the front high vowels.
- The following changes are ongoing:
- n [n] > l [l] (onset)
- ng [ŋ], ∅ > [ŋ ~ ∅] (onset)
- gw kw [kʷ kʰʷ] > g k [k kʰ] / _ong,ok [ɔːŋ ɔːk]
- ng k [ŋ k] > n t [n t] (coda)
- ng [ŋ̩] > m [m̩] (syllabic)
Note for Japanese:
- The following recent sound changes apply but are omitted to reduce clutter:
- t d s z n h [t d s z n h] > ch j sh j n h [tɕ ʑ ɕ ʑ ɲ ç] / _[i,j]
- t d h [t d h] > ts z f [ts z ɸ] / _[u]
- w [w] > 0 /_[i,e,o]
- /g/ may be pronounced [ŋ] intervocalically.
Note for Korean:
- The following recent sound changes apply but are omitted to reduce clutter:
- ㄷ ㅌ [t tʰ] > ㅈ ㅊ [tɕ tɕʰ] / _[i,j]
- ㄹ [ɾ] > ㄴ [n] / #_
- ㄴ [n] > ㅇ Ø / _[i,j]
Rimes
- P = MC labial (幫滂並明)
- T = MC dental stop (端透定泥)
- TR = MC retroflex stop (知徹澄娘)
- S = MC dental sibilant (精清從心邪)
- SR = MC retroflex sibilant (莊出崇生)
- SY = MC palatal sibilant (章昌船書禪)
- TSR = TR,SR
- TSRY = TR,SR,SY
- K = MC velar/laryngeal (見溪群疑曉匣影云以)
