Below are some T'ai Chi Ch'uan (Taijiquan) relevant 'romanized-transliterations' -- Wade-Giles method (without tone numberings) for European language speakers (English, French, et cetera), and PinYin method (with tone marks) for Mandarin Chinese speakers -- of Mandarin Traditional Characters (MTCs), with Modernized Mandarin Simplified Characters provided for comparison (if they exist) -- which characters may all look 'garbled' if your system does not support them -- sorry!
