[edit] Proto-Mandarin
I think this entry should be deleted, as the stage before "Early Mandarin" would be technically "late Middle Chinese" of the Song Dynasty. 'Early Mandarin' being the sound system described by the rime dictionary Zhong Yuan Yin Yun of the Yuan dynasty, used for rhyming of Peking Opera during that time. "Proto-Mandarin" is probably meaningless and I've not seen it in the literature. Dylanwhs 17:32, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC)
