I'm currently embarking on the green card process for the wife and have read a very rich amount of information on this forum. Thank goodness for it. I'm the type of person to only begin filling things out after I think I have a good enough understanding of what to expect, what comes next, etc. So, now that I've done a lot of reading, and am now in the "doing" part (filling the forms) I have come across this thought of which language to file in. I mean, obviously English. But I'm not sure if I should do it in English-English or if I should do it in Pinyin-English. For the name of my wife, and also for the addresses and such. Should I put it in translated English, or should I write it all in Pinyin (which is much more convenient and forthcoming?)

Hard to imagine what went before, though the article describes it. Also mentions that, though it's invention was already of global and historic proportions, pinyin made Chinese character input possible on computing systems. And, of course, since he was competent while Mao was alive, he had to be sent to a labor camp, too. Excerpts below: [ Link here ] Zhou Youguang, Who Made Writing Chinese as Simple as ABC, Dies at 111
