The Cantonese on this site is in the Jyutping romanization system devised and promoted by the Linguistic Society of Hong Kong.Therefore, I was stuck having to sound out the words and coming up with something phonetic. I didn’t have the luxury of teaching pinyin, nor did they have the luxury to learn it. Jenny Lynn, the post-pilot translator, explained:
#SERENITY SYMBOL CHINESE MOVIE#
Firefly (and the later movie Serenity), except for the pilot episode, used a made-up phonetic system for the scripts (e.g. (Jenny Lynn, questionnaire answer in E-mail attachment to author, November 11, 2004)įor writing Mandarin in the Latin alphabet (romanization), this site uses Hanyu Pinyin romanization, the standard of Mainland China and more recently of Taiwan as well. On Firefly, they were working in a vacuum with no feedback and aside from a non–Chinese-speaking script supervisor, there was no one to correct them on tones or pronunciation. I think the fans will notice their vast improvement from small to big screen. As I’ve learned from actually coaching the cast on the feature film Serenity, each and every one of our core cast members has a great, musical ear and they’re pretty diligent about learning their lines. And for anyone who knows anything about the intricacies of Mandarin, it’s hard for a novice to know whether or not you’re saying things correctly. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to go to set to supervise or coach. On the tapes, I’d say the Chinese line at conversational speed, say it three times slowly, then again at conversational speed. Translator Jenny Lynn pointed out the limitations of the learning process: Even so, the Chinese pronunciations aren’t native. The pronunciations of the actors are sometimes Taiwan Mandarin instead of Modern Standard Mandarin (Putonghua) ( see below: (2) Are the actors speaking Mandarin, Cantonese, or some other variety of Chinese?).

Reflect the local environment by incorporating natural rather artificially elements-spontaneous and offering surprises rather than simple symmetry.Symbolism of the Chinese Garden Ĭhinese gardens are intended to encourage people to roam freely in their inner thoughts, and are designed around three principles.
