Usage notes
The misspelling en Sijian'gou reflects an attempt to clarify the syllable division of 泗澗溝 as en si + en jian + en gou, rather than en si + en jiang + en ou. According to the rules of Hanyu Pinyin, however, the syllable-dividing mark (隔音符號) can only be used before a non-initial syllable beginning with en a, en o or en e, so en Sijiangou is already unambiguous; a word with en jiang + en ou would be written en Sijiang'ou. In practice, syllable-dividing marks are often inserted or omitted inconsistently.
