Mandarin Chinese Initial and Finals: Table 3

This is the third of four tables illustrating which pairings of initials and finals do occur in Mandarin Chinese and, by omission, which do not.

The initial b, for instance, may be paired with a, but not with e, since bais a sound in Mandarin Chinese, whilebe is not.

By the way, don't let the great number of sounds you see represented here alarm you. The majority of these are seldom used.
