In Pinyin, the transliteration is "de".
In Wade-Giles, the transliteration is "teh".

For people who quote Daoist material written prior to circa 1980,
autocorrect of "teh to the" becomes extremely annoying.

This is the type of specialized usage that belongs only in a dictionary
that can easily turned on/off, as needed.
