Importance
In French speaking world, the system of École française d'Extrême-Orient (EFEO) was the most used phonetic transcription of Chinese until the middle of the XXth century. It was created by Séraphin Couvreur of the aforesaid institute in 1902. Meanwhile, it was replaced by hànyǔ pīnyīn.
Background
The transcription of the EFEO did not borrow its phonetics from the national official Mandarin (pǔtōnghuà). It rather was synthesized independently to be a mean of the mandarin dialects, and shows a state of its sounds a little older (as Latinxua Sinwenz and the ancient version of Wade-Giles). Hence, certain words of which pǔtōnghuà phoneme is [ʨ] (pīnyīn: /j/), have been transcribed there either /ts/ or /k/.
