Title: Chinese names for herbs

From looking at the course sample for the herbology course, I noticed that the herbs (certainly for the single herbs in the formula section) are named in English. I was wondering if it would be possible to have notes where these are named in Chinese pinyin?

 

Does the exam have both the English and Chinese names?

 

The reason I ask, is because students need to know the Chinese herb name if they come to China, even if it is just in pinyin not characters.

 

Many thanks.

Yes, of course, there are three types for the name of each herb, namely English name, Latin name and Chinese Pinyin. Please see the sample at http://www.ontcm.com/dotnetnuke/CourseSample/Herbology/tabid/365/Default.aspx
