Chinese Medicine schools carefully prepare their students to practice Chinese Medicine, but most do not provide any meaningful education in the Chinese language. This denies many the ability to utilize Chinese Language sources to continue their education. This book provides Mandarin Pronunciation in pinyin, Cantonese pronunciation in jyutping, both complex and simplified Chinese characters for Acupuncture points, single herbs, herb formulas and their ingredients, and basic pattern names. Readers who are familiar with either pronunciation can have a source for either speaking or writing these terms.
