Tseng-Hsi or Tseng-His

edit

i am not good at Wade–Giles romanization , but Forbes use Tseng-His in the profile of his widow , while primary source use Tseng-Hsi, while secondary source such as SCMP also use Hsi.

Moreover, his Chinese name was Chinese: 陳曾熙; pinyin: Chén Céngxī; Jyutping: can4 cang4 hei1, while his brother is Chinese: 陳曾燾; pinyin: Chén Céngdào; Jyutping: can4 cang4 dou6. The first two Chinese characters are the same but the last is very different in writing system and in pronunciation. So it seem not likely to be mixed up with his brother.
