Further, no distinction has been made in the footnotes between the dentals and the cerebrals; c and \u00e7 are also often used indiscriminately there.\nAs to the method of transliteration for Chinese words, almost every Sinologue has his own; but the one used in this book is that of Sir T. Wade, which I think has been adopted more generally than others.","title":"The Awakening of Faith: Note on Transliteration","type":"page"}
