Template:enPR/documentation

About

This template is for phonemic transcriptions in the Appendix:English pronunciation (enPR) system, for use in the pronunciation section of entries.

For instance, the entry for cat includes:

{{enPR|kăt}}

which yields: enPR: kăt

Syntax

{{enPR|transcription}}

• Do not use diagonal strokes (/.../): enPR is a phonemic transcription system, so they are redundant, and confusing to the intended audience.
