How to differentiate between んい and に in romaji?


Occasionally I want to look up a word on [Jisho.org](http://jisho.org/) from a
device where it is inconvenient to use a Japanese keyboard. The default is to
interpret an input as romaji if possible, so that's usually not a problem, but
a word like 音{おん}韻{いん} would be romanized as _onin_ , which Jisho parses as
おにん, not おんいん, and does not find the word I am looking for.

When actually entering the text, I would enter o-n-n-i-n-n, but _onnin_ ,
would be the romanization of おんにん. Is there a standard way to differentiate
between んい and に in situations like this?




It is not easy to input the right romaji to find a Japanese word especially
when 'ん' is in the middle.

In the case of 'onin', you should place an apostrophe after the first 'n' to
separate 'on' and 'in' and if you type "on'in", the
[jisho.org](http://jisho.org/search/%20on'in) will show it as [音韻]{おんいん}.
