Usage

This template formats IPA transcriptions and links them to WP:IPA for English. The transcription should match the conventions of that key; for narrower dialect transcriptions, use {IPA-all}, which links to a more complete IPA key.

The first cell in the template is for the transcription, and a second optional cell is a switch that controls the lede. With no second value, the lede English pronunciation: appears:

{IPA-en|n} → ఆంగ్ల ఉచ్ఛారణ: /n/
{IPA-en|n|pron} → pronounced /n/
{IPA-en|n|lang} → English: /n/
{IPA-en|n|local} → locally /n/
{IPA-en|n|IPA} → IPA: /n/
{IPA-en|n|US} → US: /n/
{IPA-en|n|UK} → UK: /n/
{IPA-en|n|} → /n/

Any of these may be combined with a sound file in an optional third cell:

{IPA-en|n|local|En-us-'n'.ogg} → locally /n/ ( listen)

For the default lede, however, a placeholder such as ‹-› is required in the second cell:

{IPA-en|n|-|En-us-'n'.ogg} → ఆంగ్ల ఉచ్ఛారణ: /n/ ( listen)

Usage of IPA pronunciation templates

Wikipedia offers several templates for proper display of IPA transcriptions.

IPA font

In general, IPA symbols on a page should be enclosed in the {IPA} template, which formats the text in an IPA-producing font. If a substantial portion of a page uses IPA, it is customary to post notice of that fact with {IPA notice|lang=en}, though each token still requires the {IPA} template for proper formatting.

If there are not enough occurrences to warrant a notice, then consider a template that links to an IPA key for the first instance of the IPA on a page or section.

English words

For English words, in a broad, non-regional transcription, as when giving the pronunciation of a key word in an article, use templates linking to Help:IPA for English, a chart of the subset of the IPA that is relevant to English:

{IPA-en}, appearing as: ఆంగ్ల ఉచ్ఛారణ: /word/ (also /word/, English: /word/, pronounced /word/, as hereafter).
{IPAc-en}, which automates the conversion to IPA, so that {IPAc-en|'|w|3r|d} appears as /ˈwɜːrd/. This provides mouse-over links to the symbols, and is now the preferred template.

Foreign words

For foreign words that are not assimilated into English, regional pronunciations of English words, and non-standard English dialects, use templates linking to the more general Help:IPA chart, containing all major IPA symbols:

- {IPA-all}, appearing as: IPA: [word]. Or:
- For specific languages, there may be dedicated IPA keys for standardized transcription. There are several options for their display. The first cell includes the ISO code of the language; the second is the transcription; the third keys an introductory phrase; and the fourth is space for a sound file. Using the French word eau [o] as an example, we have the default format:

{IPA-fr|o} → French pronunciation: [o]

Or the word "pronounced" can be used as the introduction:

{IPA-fr|o|pron} → pronounced: [o]

Language name only:

{IPA-fr|o|lang} → French: [o]

"IPA" only:

{IPA-fr|o|IPA} → IPA: [o]

Link only:

{IPA-fr|o|} → [o]

Any of these may be combined with a sound file:

{IPA-fr|o|lang|Fr-eau.ogg} → French: [o] ( listen)

For the default introductory phrase, however, a placeholder such as “-” is required:

{IPA-fr|o|-|Fr-eau.ogg} → French pronunciation: [o] ( listen)

Supported languages and their templates

IPA-all for not-supported languages

Redirects have been created for languages which do not yet have dedicated templates. Transcriptions which use these redirects will link to {IPA-all} for the time being; when a language-specific template is created the articles will be linked correctly. For example, you can use {IPA-jv|word} for Javanese, but for the moment it will be redirected to {IPA-all}, producing IPA: [word].

Conversion to IPA

Another type of language-specific template allows you to enter ordinary letters (or conventional ASCII equivalents) from a given language for automatic conversion to phonetic symbols. Languages currently available, and examples of use, are:

Arabic	`{IPAc-ar\|2\|a\|l\|l\|u\|gh\|a\|t_\|a\|l\|3\|a\|r\|a\|b\|i\|y\|y\|a}` → [ʔalluɣat‿alʕarabijja]
Mandarin	`{IPAc-cmn\|zh\|ong\|1\|h\|ua\|2\|-\|r\|en\|2\|m\|in\|2\|-\|g\|ong\|4\|h\|e\|2\|g\|uo\|2}` → [tʂʊ́ŋxwǎ ʐə̌nmǐn kʊ̂ŋxɤ̌kwɔ̌]
English	`{IPAc-en\|'\|s\|&\|n\|d\|k\|a:\|s\|@l}` → /ˈs[invalid input: '&']ndkɑːsəl/
French	`{IPAc-fr\|j\|@\|-\|s\|U\|i\|s_\|a\|m\|é\|r\|i\|c\|ain}` → [ʒə sɥi.z‿ameʁikɛ̃]
Irish	`{IPAc-ga\|'\|b\|ai\|l'\|@\|-\|'\|á\|th\|@\|-\|'\|c'\|l'\|ia\|th}` → [ˈbˠalʲə ˈaːhə ˈclʲiəh]
Japanese	`{IPAc-ja\|a}` → [a]
Hungarian	`{IPAc-hu\|'\|m\|a\|gy\|á\|r}` → [ˈmɒɟaːr]
