The Chinese write in 'characters' called 'Hanzi'. You and I would be unable to write or pronounce them.

When you want to write the Chinese language in a form that non-Chinese people can read or pronounce (using Westernized-lettering), you use a system called 'pinyin' which translates the Chinese characters into westernized-alphabetical words.
They don't write from right to left or left to right, they write from up to down.
