pinyin
macOS / Education
Paste or type in Chinese sentences, pinyin will not only translate them into Pinyin romanization but also highlight display, and read them out in Mandarin Chinese. (Do NOT need an internet connection, it works offline absolutely!)
Pinyin is a valuable tool for learning Chinese. Insert any Chinese, be it a word, sentence, or paragraph, and the app will convert it into Pinyin romanization. The app is especially helpful if you're taking a Chinese class or is planning to take the SAT II Chinese Exam.
