* — 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

  1. All third-deng (等) and hekou (合口) rimes
  2. The third-deng (等) and kaikou (開口) rimes of 東, 鍾, 尤

Allophony in reflexes

Note for Mandarin Chinese — The following rules also apply:

  • 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 Cantonese:

  • Up until the early 20th century, Cantonese had alveolo-palatal sibilants [tɕ tɕʰ ɕ], 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.
  • /n/ is currently merging into /l/, as is /ŋ/ into the null initial.

Note for Japanese — The following rules also apply:

  • 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,u,e,o]
  • /g/ may be pronounced [ŋ] intervocalically.

Note for Korean — The following rules also apply:

  • 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)
