The machine does not have any accomodation particularly designed for producing tone marks; yet we can use the diacritical marks “¯” (macron), “´” (acute), “ˇ” (hacek), and “ˋ” (grave), which are provided for on the machine, to stand for the first, second, third, and fourth tones respectively, leaving any syllable unmarked as neutral tone.

It was not until very recently, therefore, that the spellings <σ̌>, <τσ̌>, <ζ̌> and <τζ̌>, for [ʃ], [ʧ], [ʒ] and [ʤ] respectively, became available, allowing for an orthographic distinction between these postalveolar sounds and their alveolar counterparts. [¶] In connection with the above, the palatalised allophones of the velars /x/ and /k/ (i.e. [ʃ] and [ʧ] or [ʤ] respectively, as we have seen earlier in this chapter) are generally (and justifiably) spelled as <χ̌> and <κ̌>, i.e. with the mark for palatalisation (the hacek in this case) added to the Greek letter in order to render the Cypriot pronunciation.
