Note: Yu, read as yu (yú). Editor note: In Guangyun, Jiyun, and Yunhui, the rising tone forms are all classified under the yu initial, while only Zhengyun classifies it under the yi initial. This is because northern dialects often treat the yi initial as a yu initial, and consequently, the yu initial is treated as a yi initial. However, since the level tone is also classified under the yu initial, it is evident that it does not belong to the yi initial.
