Usage
This template is used to directly format IPA characters. Unlike {{IPA}}
, it does not add anything before the formatted characters. ({{IPA}}
adds the word "IPA", linked to Wiktionary:International Phonetic Alphabet, as well as a superscripted "(key)", linked to a language-specific Appendix explaining that language's pronunciation, e.g. Appendix:English pronunciation.) It takes parameters similar to {{IPA}}
, most notably one or more unnamed parameters listing IPA pronunciations. For example:
From {{fr-conj-auto}}
for -ger verbs:
(to indicate that the {{m|fr||-g-}} is a “soft” {{IPAchar|/ʒ/}} and not a “hard” {{IPAchar|/ɡ/}})
gives:
(to indicate that the -g- is a “soft” /ʒ/ and not a “hard” /ɡ/)
Note that unlike most pronunciation templates, this template does not have a parameter for specifying a language.
Parameters
|1=
,|2=
,|3=
...- Indicates one or more pronunciations. These should be formatted in correct IPA and be surrounded by slashes
/ /
for phonemic representations, and square brackets[ ]
for phonetic representations. They will be displayed separated by commas. |qualN=
- Specifies a qualifier to be placed before pronunciation N. This is formatted with the
{{qualifier}}
template. |refN=
- Specifies one or more reference footnotes to be placed after pronunciation N.
|ref=
corresponds to|1=
,|ref2=
corresponds to|2=
, etc. The footnote superscript appears directly after the corresponding pronunciation. If you specify this, you should include a===References===
section with<references />
in it. To specify multiple footnotes for a single respelling, separate them with!!!
(with or without spaces). To specify a name for a given footnote, use<<name:NAME>>
directly after the footnote text, as if<ref name="NAME">...</ref>
were used, and to use a previously named footnote a second time, use only<<name:NAME>>
with an empty footnote text, as if<ref name="NAME" />
were used. See{{IPA}}
for more information on the syntax of the|ref=
argument. The parameter|nN=
is a deprecated synonym; please do not use.
