Template:x2i

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search



This template, which should be substituted when used, allows users to type in XSAMPA characters and have them automatically converted to IPA. It should generally be used inside {{IPA}}, {{IPAchar}}, or {{IPAfont}}, but can also be used simply to generate any characters that happen to be present in the IPA, such the letters æ and ð for Icelandic, which can be generated by typing {{subst:x2i|{}} and {{subst:x2i|D}}. For example, the typed string

/{{subst:x2i|"dIkS@nEr\i}}/

automatically converts to

/ˈdɪkʃənɛɹi/

when the “Save page” button is clicked.
