Adding Jyutping (粵拼)
Hello, there are many fonts I can find with pinyin (拼音) on top, but I've never found a font with Jyutping (粵拼) on top.
Would you ever consider creating one?
This would allow you to learn Cantonese pronunciations through the many apps that only support Mandarin.
Thank you.
I've had a look and the Jyutping is in the files as kCantonese. Now I just have to figure out how to compile it.
You will need to:
- extract Jyutping (ruby) text from unihan dataset using https://github.com/parlr/chinese-data/ by modifying https://github.com/parlr/chinese-data/blob/f1af9d1c18/src/chinese.awk to pull
kCantonese
instead ofkMandarin
. - generate the JSON file with
yarn start
Once this is done you can use ruby-font-creator
- ruby text is the text above the character.
