transcription system invented by the <a href="/wiki/French_School_of_the_Far_East" title="French School of the Far East">French School of the Far East</a> (EFEO) was the most widely used in the <a href="/wiki/French-speaking_world" class="mw-redirect" title="French-speaking world">French-speaking world</a> until the mid-20th century. While it is often deemed to have been devised by <a href="/wiki/S%C3%A9raphin_Couvreur" title="Séraphin Couvreur">Séraphin Couvreur</a>, who was not an EFEO member, its actual creator was <a href="/w/index.php?title=Arnold_Vissi%C3%A8re&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Arnold Vissière (page does not exist)">Arnold Vissière</a><span class="noprint" style="font-size:85%; font-style: normal;"> [<a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnold_Vissi%C3%A8re" class="extiw" title="fr:Arnold Vissière">fr</a>]</span> (1858–1930).<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was superseded by <a href="/wiki/Hanyu_Pinyin" class="mw-redirect" title="Hanyu Pinyin">Hanyu Pinyin</a>. </p><p>The transcription of the EFEO did not borrow its phonetics from the national official <a href="/wiki/Standard_Chinese" title="Standard Chinese">Standard Chinese</a>. Rather, it was synthesized independently to be a mean of Chinese dialects, and shows a state of sounds a little older in form (as in <a href="/wiki/Latinxua_Sin_Wenz" title="Latinxua Sin Wenz">Latinxua Sin Wenz</a> and the older version of <a href="/wiki/Wade-Giles" class="mw-redirect" title="Wade-Giles">Wade-Giles</a>). Hence, the phoneme <span class="IPA nowrap" lang="und-Latn-fonipa" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">[tɕ]</span> (Pinyin: <span class="nowrap">⟨j⟩</span>), is transcribed as either <span class="nowrap">⟨ts⟩</span> or <span class="nowrap">⟨k⟩</span>; before the <i>jian-tuan merger</i> in contemporary Mandarin, i.e. the <a href="/wiki/Merger_(phonology)" class="mw-redirect" title="Merger (phonology)">merger</a> between the <a href="/wiki/Alveolar_consonants" class="mw-redirect" title="Alveolar consonants">alveolar consonants</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Alveolo-palatal_consonants" class="mw-redirect" title="Alveolo-palatal consonants">alveolo-palatal consonants</a>, before the high front vowels <span class="IPA nowrap" lang="und-fonipa" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">[<a href="/wiki/Close_front_unrounded_vowel" title="Close front unrounded vowel">i</a>]</span> and <span class="IPA nowrap" lang="und-fonipa" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">[<a href="/wiki/Close_front_rounded_vowel" title="Close front rounded vowel">y</a>]</span>. </p><p>Since EFEO makes use, to a large extent, of the phonetic values of Latin letters as used in French, the transcription of many Chinese syllables into the EFEO system is quite similar to how they were transcribed by French missionaries in the late 17th to 19th centuries (e.g., as seen in <i>Description ... de la Chine</i> compiled by <a href="/wiki/Jean-Baptiste_Du_Halde" title="Jean-Baptiste Du Halde">Jean-Baptiste Du Halde</a>); for example, "<a href="/wiki/Yanzhou_Prefecture_(Zhejiang)" class="mw-redirect" title="Yanzhou Prefecture (Zhejiang)">Yanzhou Fou</a>" is "Yen-tcheou-fou" in both cases. However, a few features (notably, the wide use of "ts", and the use of apostrophes to show aspiration) distinguishes it from the early French missionary systems.<sup id="cite_ref-2"
