1. Rime tableA rime table or rhyme table is a syllable chart of the Chinese language, a significant advance on the fǎnqiè analysis used in earlier rime dictionaries. As one of China's native phonological models, it tabulates the syllables of Middle Chinese by their onsets, rimes, grades of rime, tones and other properties. Tradition holds that rime tables were invented by Buddhist monks, who were inspired by the Sanskrit syllable charts in the Siddham script they used to study the language.
