Usage notes
en Huoerguosi can be considered a misspelling of en Huo'erguosi. In theory, a syllable-dividing mark (隔音符號) should be added before a non-initial syllable beginning with en a, en o or en e. Hence, en Huoerguosi is not allowed since a word made up of en huo, en er, en guo and en si would be spelled as en Huo'erguosi, a word made up of en hu, en o, en er, en guo and en si would be spelled as en Hu'o'erguosi, a word made up of en huo, en er, en gu, en o and en si would be spelled as en Huo'ergu'osi and a word made up of en hu, en o, en er, en gu, en o and en si would be spelled as en Hu'o'ergu'osi. In practice, syllable-dividing marks are often added or omitted at will.
