Usage notes
Huoerguosi can be considered a misspelling of Huo'erguosi. In theory, a syllable-dividing mark (隔音符號／隔音符号 (géyīn fúhào)) should be added before a non-initial syllable beginning with a, o, or e. Hence, Huoerguosi is not allowed since a word made up of huo, er, guo and si would be spelled as Huo'erguosi, a word made up of hu, o, er, guo and si would be spelled as Hu'o'erguosi, a word made up of huo, er, gu, o and si would be spelled as Huo'ergu'osi and a word made up of hu, o, er, gu, o and si would be spelled as Hu'o'ergu'osi. In practice, syllable-dividing marks are often added or omitted at will.
