Why is the Chinese word "girl" or "女" not showing up on pinyin The correct pinyin of girl in Nu, but when you type nu in none of the first searches are &quot;Nu&quot;, or even if u type just &quot;n&quot; for that matter.
Why does it not appear, as it is a pretty common word.
Try 'nv'. It's actually 'nǚ' and since 'v' is not in mandarin pronunciation, it's quite reasonable to use 'v' in place.
