How do you write h in Chinese?

Chinese is not an alphabetical language, it is ideographic language. Each Chinese character represents an idea or a word, not a letter. This means there is no 'h' or any other letter, either. For the benefit of foreigners learning Chinese, an alphabetic system called 'Pinyin' was devised in the early 1950s to represent the sounds of Chinese words. The letter 'h' and most other letters used in English appear in this Pinyin system, but this is not the written Chinese language.
