Penkyamp (Chinese: 拼音; Yale: ping3 yam1, Jyutping: ping3 jam1) or Cantonese pinyin, is a romanization system for transliterating Cantonese Chinese. It is a joint effort of enthusiasts in Guangzhou with a goal of devicing an alternative script to write Cantonese, replacing the standard Chinese characters plus the Cantonese folk characters. It is an attempt to standardize the language spoken by large number of residents in Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Sydney, Auckland, Vancouver and San Francisco, from the status of a vernacular to that of a literary language.

On the other hand, the Linguistic Society of Hong Kong adopts another Cantonese Romanization called Jyutping, which is not yet popularized among Cantonese-English or English-Cantonese dictionaries. The current most widely accepted system for Cantonese Romanization are Meyer-Wempe and Yale.

Both Penkyamp and Jyutping are attempts to improve from previous systems. The features of Penkyamp includes:

- reflects the vowel system of Cantonese more systematically than Jyutping by recognizing all long-short vowel contrasts,
  - whereas Jyutping only recognizes short a and long a.
- indicates long and short vowels using the unique orthographic feature of altering the ending consonant of the shengmu.
- does not have the ambiguous distinction between "oe" and "eu" (as in Jyutping).
- treats the two (not three) front-round vowels using the same silent vowel letter "e", placed before the substantial vowel
- categorizes the other front-round vowel (an underdeveloped one) as a short "o".
- does not use the consonant "j", which is used in traditional Cantonese anglicization as "z" instead of "y" (as in Jyutping).

The following descriptions applies to Penkyamp.

## [編輯] Example of Penkyamp

"Nanhai Chao" (pinyin for 南海潮, penkyamp Nam4 Hoi2 Ciu4), or "Southern Sea Tides", is a song of the overseas Cantonese. Its melody is based on the folk songs of the boat people in the Pearl River Delta and its adjacent coasts.

  紅霞满洒粤天東破曉
  蒸蒸日上序華章
  紅棉紫荆又添千百朶
  欣欣萬世象

  我見江潮依然推起那舢板
  卻是穿過玉宇瓊樓新靚景
  我叫海潮波淘不要這洶涌
  隔住一片萬里大洋帰心切

Translation:

  Red clouds are overtaking the Cantonese sky at daybreak,
  The rising sun preludes an elegant prose;
  The silk trees (symbolizing Guangzhou) and redbuds (symbolizing Hong Kong) adds hundreds and thousands of blooms again,
  What a prosperous picture to last forever!

  I see river tides still pushing that "sampan" (an Asian boat),
  But it rafts through a refreshing scene of edifaces of jade.
  I tell the ocean not to be so turbulant,
  Across from thousands of miles of ocean I am home sick.

Penkyamp transliteration:

  Honkha mún sã Yeùd tïn dönk pôhiũ
  Jënkjënkyàtseóng jòy wajeöng
  Honkmin jĩgënk yàw tïm cïnbâg dõ
  Yäntyänt mànsây jeòng

  Ngó gîn göngciu yïyin töy hẽy ná sänbãn
  Keôgsì ceün guô yôkyeúkenklaw sänt lêng gẽnk
  Ngó gîu hõiciu bötow bätyîu jé hönkyõnk
  Gâg jeù yät pîn mànléy dàiyeong guäysämpcîd

## [編輯] Variant

There were complaints that using final consonants to determine vowel length was counter-intuitive and that "eu" and "eo" were unconventional. So a variant called "Gwohngdongwaa pengyam" was created. These were the changes:

Initial "z" was replaced by "j".

Vowels:

- long: aa(ah) eh(ee) i oh(oo) u oe ue
- short: a e o
- diphthongs1: aay(ai) ooy(oi) uy aaw(au) iw ay ey oy aw ow
- diphthongs2: single vowels and diphthongs were preceded by semi-vowel w, such as way as in gwây (expensive)

Consonant endings were made consistent: m n ng p t k
