粵語拼音 (Simplified Chinese 粤语拼音 ) can refer to two things:

1) Jyutping 粤拼

Jyutping is a romanization system for Cantonese developed by the Linguistic Society of Hong Kong (LSHK) in 1993. Its long official name is The Linguistic Society of Hong Kong Cantonese Romanization Scheme. Chinesebay.com is compiling its online Cantonese pronunciation dictionary using Jyutping because it is the easiest system to master and use with common computer keyboards or phone keypads.

2) Various Cantonese Romanization Systems

There are so many Cantonese romanization systems for Cantonese pronunciation that it is very hard for a Cantonese beginner to decide which one to master to help with the pronunciation. Many books use so many different systems and they are not so interchangeable easily that lots of efforts may become useless or wasted for those learners who master the other systems.

Paul Huang, who runs ChineseBay.om, wishes that one day, the teaching materials can focus on Jyutping and eliminate repeated efforts using other systems. For Mandarin learners, they are much luckier because Pinyin, the official pronunciation system, is most widely used and they don’t have the same trouble as Cantonese learners.  Those Cantonese educators who want to be special or unique need to understand being unique or special will increase communication difficulty.
