Text processing & transformation mechanics
Uses bundled pinyin-pro tables. A primary JSON object supplies text and mode; ordinary text uses tonal pinyin because this page has no mode field.
Worked text manipulation example
Scenario: Return numeric pinyin for a short greeting with the page's JSON input mode.
Sample input:
Processing: Reads text and mode from the primary JSON object, calls bundled pinyin-pro with numeric tones, then serializes the result.

Frequently asked questions
Which output modes does Pinyin Translator support?+
The default is tonal Pinyin. In a JSON input object's `mode`, `num` produces numbered tones, `none` or `toneless` removes tone marks, and `bopomofo`, `zhuyin`, or `注音` produces Bopomofo from numbered Pinyin syllables.
What happens to 你好 in each mode?+
For the trimmed input `你好`, the default result is `nǐ hǎo`. In a primary-input JSON object, modes `num`, `none`, and `bopomofo` give `ni3 hao3`, `ni hao`, and `ㄋㄧˇ ㄏㄠˇ` respectively.
Can JSON set both the text and mode?+
Yes. A valid primary-input object such as `{"text":"你好","mode":"num"}` uses those values and returns formatted JSON, including `text`, the resolved `mode`, and `pinyin` (`ni3 hao3` in this example).
Will it determine every Chinese pronunciation correctly?+
No. The tool applies its bundled conversion library and reading rules. Names, rare terms, context-dependent polyphonic characters, and preferred editorial pronunciations may need independent checking.
