Usage

This template generates phonemic Armenian pronunciations both for Eastern Armenian and Western Armenian using Module:hy-pronunciation. It is used under the ===Pronunciation=== header։

===Pronunciation===

* {{hy-pron}}

For example, in կապիկ (kapik) it will generate the following:

• (Eastern Armenian) IPA^(key): /kɑˈpik/, [kɑpík]
• (Western Armenian) IPA^(key): /ɡɑˈbiɡ/, [ɡɑbíɡ]

For irregular pronunciations add a phonetic respelling as the first parameter, e.g. in խորհուրդ (xorhurd):

===Pronunciation===

* {{hy-pron|խորուրթ}}

For colloquial pronunciations in addition to the standard ones use the parameter |coll= for Eastern Armenian and |collw= for Western Armenian, e.g. in սեղմել (seġmel):

===Pronunciation===

* {{hy-pron|coll=սեխմել|collw=սեխմել}}

Use the parameter |W= or |E= to disable the output of either variant. E.g. in բարդի (bardi) use:

* {{hy-pron|W=0}}

and in բարտի (barti) use:

* {{hy-pron|E=0}}

Alternative spellings

If a word has both a reformed and traditional orthography (like ազատություն and ազատութիւն), then we want to minimize duplicating the hy-pron entry.

• For Western Armenian, if the reformed spelling has a pronunciation, then don't create a pronunciation for the traditional version. In the future, we may systematically reverse this restriction, and add Western pronunciations for all the traditionally-written words.
• Similarly for Eastern Armenian, we don't think it's practical to duplicate the pronunciation for both traditional and reformed spellings.
