Au Fung-Chi

Au Fung-Chi (Chinese: 區鳳墀) (1847-1914), was a Hong Kong Protestant church leader. He was an Elder of To Tsai Church (道濟會堂), which was Sun Yat-sen's place of worship [1] while he studied medicine in Hong Kong. Au was Sun's teacher of Chinese literature, and gave Sun the pseudonym name Yìxiān (逸仙), which in Cantonese is pronounced "Yut-seen"[2] (IPA: [jɐt˨ si:n˥], Jyutping: Jat6 Sin1). Au was also the Secretary of the Department of Chinese Affairs (traditional Chinese: 華民政務司署總書記; simplified Chinese: 华政务司署总书记; pinyin: Huámínzhèngwù Sīshǔzǒngshūji; Jyutping: waa4 man4 zing3 mou6 si1 zung2 syu1 gei3).[3]
