For example, "fu2" in Cantonese Pinyin is written as "fur" in Liujgoj Cantonese. 3. Liujgoj Cantonese considers tone 3 to be the basic tone (that is, the most commonly used tone), so no symbol is needed to mark the tone. In other words, if a syllable does not add any tone symbol, Liujgoj Cantonese will default the tone of this syllable to 3. For example, "fu3" in Cantonese Pinyin is simply written as "fu" in Liujgoj Cantonese, because the default tone is 3. 4. The letter "x" represents tone 4. For example, "fu4" in Cantonese Pinyin is written as "fux" in Liujgoj Cantonese. 5. The letter "q" represents tone 5. For example, "fu5" in Cantonese Pinyin is written as "fuq" in Liujgoj Cantonese. 6. The letter "h" represents tone 6. For example, "fu6" in Cantonese Pinyin is written as "fuh" in Liujgoj Cantonese.
