The Chinese alphabet also known as 'Mandarin Phonetic Symbols' in Chinese is '注音符号'. In pinyin it is 'zhu yin fu hao'. Another name for it is the first four characters of the alphabet... 'bo po mo fo' or 'ㄅㄆㄇㄈ'
The Chinese alphabet is rarely used outside Taiwan. And in Taiwan it is only used to teach children the proper pronunciation of Chinese characters. It consists of 37 letters and four different tones. Proper mixture of up to three letters and one tone will give you the proper pronunciation of any Chinese character.
