Why does this converter use 二 rather than 两?
The selected written cardinal consistently uses 二 (èr). 两 (liǎng) is used in other contexts, including before classifiers, and can occur before larger units in ordinary speech. This tool does not adapt numbers to a counted noun; practice checks the displayed 二 convention.
Why is 一 shown as yī in the pinyin?
This guide marks the base tone yī. Connected speech can change its tone depending on what follows. The guide uses teaching spaces between syllables and is not a transcription of every spoken tone change.
