I have chosen all the above bou to be placed at the end of words so that there is no tone sandhi which is called biang3diao7 變調|变调 in Teochew Uê. As for bou7mi5 – tones 1 and 7 do not change tones.  It is very important that we say our tones correctly so people can understand what we are saying. It is also important to have tone exercises and the above will help you to master our eight tones.
