You can type in the Pinyin with tone marks (aka. diacritic/accent)!

To enable it, do the following:


 * 1) Click the search box at the top of the page.
 * 2) Click the little keyboard icon that appears near the search box.
 * 3) If "中文" appears at the top of the list, select "拼音符号输入法".
 * 4) If "中文" doesn't appear at the top of the list, do the following:
 * 5) 一覧のいちばん後ろの「...」をクリックするとパネルが表示されます.
 * 6) Find "中文" in the panel. Click it.
 * 7) Click the little keyboard icon again, and select "拼音符号输入法".

To disable this special keyboard and go back to type usually, click the little keyboard icon and then click "Use native keyboard", or press. To re-enable the Chinese Pinyin keyboard, repeat the steps listed above.

To type Pinyin consonants, type the corresponding Latin letter. For example, to type zh in zhōngwén (Pinyin of 中文), type z and h.

To type Pinyin vowels, type the corresponding Latin letter, replacing ü with v. Alternative spelling iou, uei and uen will be replaced by standard spelling iu, ui and un respectively. To type Pinyin with tones, type the vowel first, followed by the tone number, with 1 for yīnpíng, 2 for yángpíng, 3 for shǎng and 4 for qù. To type the syllable-dividing mark, type the apostrophe.

Here are some examples (this list is not exhaustive):
