An officer from the Ministry of Education explained that most of the so - called "new" pronunciations have not yet been confirmed(确认). But according to the fifth and sixth edition(版本) of the Modern Chinese Dictionary, quite a few pinyin spelling have already been changed such as "呆板 (from dái to dāi)" and "确凿 (from zuò to záo)". So, Professor Zhang Yiwu from Peking University told China Daily that pronunciation changes were normal and necessary as language changed and they would not destroy traditional culture.
