To make sure I am not confusing people. The main direction of the text
above is horizontal. I quickly asked Google and found a picture[1] about
this at the first page:

  ㄅㄠˇㄅㄠˇ

It is somewhat arguable whether this is semantically ruby in this sense:

  <ruby><rb>寶</rb><rt>ㄅㄠˇ</rt><rb>寶</rb><rt>ㄅㄠˇ</rt></ruby>

with

  rb { display: none; }

. So....

Other Taiwanese folks, can you verify that ㄅ一ㄤˋ does not have a
corresponding Chinese character?
