💡 Blue buttons: some Chinese characters use this independent Pinyin spelling. For example: yi / i, wu / u, ya / ia. When the sound is not combined with another Pinyin part, it is usually written in the form on the left.

💡 Orange buttons: this sound usually needs to combine with another Pinyin part to form a complete Pinyin syllable.

💡 In buttons like ya / ia, the left side shows the spelling used when the sound stands alone. The right side shows the form used when it combines with another Pinyin part.
