Notes for non-Chinese speakers: Since Chinese is a tonal language (different tones indicate different meanings) the pronounciations for the techniques have numbers at the end of the syllable. Here is a quick guide for how to prounounce the syllables and not sound like a complete foreigner.
1 = High
2 = Short Rise
3 = Short fall then rise
4 = Fall
