The province names ‘Hu'nan’ and ‘He'nan’ are therefore properly written with the inverted comma, as ‘hun'an’ and ‘hen'an’ are both permissible pinyin readings. However, in theory, this clarification is not needed because the syllable-dividing mark (隔音符號) should only be added before a non-initial syllable beginning with en a, en o or en e. Hence, en Hunan could only ever refer to a word made up of en hu and en nan since a word made up of en hun and en an would be spelled as en Hun'an. In practice, syllable-dividing marks are often added or omitted at will. References Further reading Hu'nan Hu'nan
