+;;; [May 24, 2023] 
+;;;     - Added syllables: {'BIANG', 'CEI', 'CHUA', 'ENG', 'RUA'}
+;;;     - Removed syllables that are not existing in standard Mandarin: {'FAI', 'KIU', 'NG', 'SEI'}
+;;;     - Increased the number of finals to 35 from 24 and updated all syllable entries.
+;;;		- Initials and finals are directly obtained by running,
+;;;		  ```
+;;;			from pypinyin.contrib.tone_convert import to_initials, to_finals
+;;;			initial = to_initials(syllable).upper()
+;;;			final = to_finals(syllable).upper()
