Pinyin for 喜欢 should be xi3huan1?

The “right” answer according to Skritter is xi3huan5 instead of xi3huan1. I’m a newbie, so when I see strange pinyin in Skritter I assume it knows better, but there is lots of other evidence in this case.

Pleco has this listed as xi3huan5 as well, this looks to be correct!

@BenJackson Skritter mostly supports mainland Chinese pronunciation for word-level vocabulary items. You can learn more about Skritter’s standard reference sources here: https://blog.skritter.com/2015/02/standard-references-for-skritter-chinese/

We’d love to support Taiwan pronunciation in the future as a toggle in the app, but it pretty low on our priority hit-list at the moment.
