No squares that time, so I'm assuming it worked?

Yes. Unfortunately the chapeaux need to be upside down, but this will have to do for now.

Hùi, wŏ hùi jiăng hànyŭ. Just not well, I'm afraid.
I've got some Chinese dialogue in the episode I'm preparing for the AH.COM SERIES and was trying to see if the pinyin would work here.

Mmm...that reminds me...
ROMULUS:
(says something in a language that sounds like Uzbek to Luakel)
ALTERNATE LUAKEL:
(responds in the same language)
DOCTOR WHAT
(whispering into a wrist communicator; he is hiding from them)
What are they saying, Leo?
LEO
It translates approximately to "When you find those fuckers, make them regret and pay for their crimes," and "I'll do so by gouging out their testicles with a rusty spoon..."
ROMULUS:
(shouts something very loudly)
LEO
And that translates as, "GUARDS!!! SEIZE THEM!!! I HAVE A FEELING HE MAY BE NEARBY!!!
DOCTOR WHAT
(looking very nervous)
Oh...shit...

Hanyu Pinyin is good, but I prefer the elegance of Wade-Giles...

Heh. That was good, Romulus (mostly because yet another ATL me was in it)... ;)
BTW, why is there an "alternate" next to my name?
