Chinese doesn't normally use an alphabet for writing. It uses thousands of picture-symbols. But there is an alphabet, called Bopomofo or Zhuyin fuhao.

Zhuyin fuhao (注音符號 or ㄓㄨˋ ㄧㄣ ㄈㄨˊ ㄏㄠˋ), is a phonetic system for transcribing Chinese, especially Mandarin. It was introduced in the 1910s. It's mainly used as a teaching tool.
