Pang-bô͘:IPA link

Pang-bô͘ bûn-su[chhâ-khòaⁿ] [pian-chi̍p] [le̍k-sú] [kun-sin]

Pang-bô͘:SpecialChars The template {IPA link} create a wikilink from an IPA symbol to the respective phonetic article. IPA link displays the bare IPA symbol. Showing IPA defined brackets like "/…/" is an input option.

The conversion list, from symbol to article name, is not defined in this template, but inherited from {IPA symbol}.

{IPAalink}, {IPAblink} and {IPAslink} are earlier versions with defined angular "⟨…⟩", square "[…]" or slash "/…/" brackets, respectively.

• First parameter or ipa symbol= (required): any IPA symbol or its IPA number, respectively.
• {IPA link|m} → m
• {IPA link|ɡb} → ɡb
• {IPA link|301} → 301

Brackets

• bracket=, or second or third parameter: set IPA bracket. Options are: /, [, and <. Default is none. The angle bracket input can be input as < from a regular keyboard; the output displayed is the opening U+27E8 ⟨ MATHEMATICAL LEFT ANGLE BRACKET (HTML ⟨⧼dot-separator⧽ ⟨, ⟨, ⟨) and the closing U+27E9 ⟩ MATHEMATICAL RIGHT ANGLE BRACKET (HTML ⟩⧼dot-separator⧽ ⟩, ⟩, ⟩).
• {IPA link|m|<} → ⟨m⟩
• {IPA link|m||<} → ⟨m⟩
• {IPA link|301||<} → ⟨301⟩
• {IPA link|m||[} → [m]
• {IPA link|ɡb||[} → [ɡb]
• {IPA link|ɡb||/} → /ɡb/

Label

• label=, or second or third parameter: adds a label to the wikilink.
• {IPA link|m|label=Any text} → Any text
• {IPA link|m|Any text} → Any text
• {IPA link|m||Any text} → Any text
• {IPA link|ɡb|label=} → ɡb

(Note: showsymbol= does the same, but it is deprecated.)

Combined

• {IPA link|ɡb|bracket=<|label=Any text} → Any text
• {IPA link|ɡb|Any text|/} → /Any text/
• {IPA link|ɡb|<|Any text} → ⟨Any text⟩

Direct page

The target page can be set (overridden) by using direct page:

{IPA link|ʘ|<} → ⟨ʘ⟩

{IPA link|ʘ|direct page=Bilabial clicks|<} → ⟨ʘ⟩

Error situation

If the IPA symbol is not defined in the {IPA symbol} table, then an error message is returned.

{IPA link|pʰɪk} → Error using {IPA symbol}: "pʰɪk" not found in list

The latter is normally more an example of accidental misuse than intentional use, or it could be a sign that a symbol is missing from the {IPA symbol} table.

Option "showsymbol" deprecated (use label= or a second unnamed parameter, preferably)

The template can take the extra input like showsymbol=A, and then display that symbol, while also linking to the appropriate article. The symbol to be shown can also be the second unnamed parameter.

{IPA link|m|showsymbol=Anytext} → Anytext

{IPA link|ɽ͡r|showsymbol=*} → *

Option name

The name=yes parameter provides a display of the name of the phoneme (a function of {IPA symbol}) to the right of the displayed symbol for the phoneme, as shown in the example below:

• {IPA link|m|/|name=yes} → /m/ siang-tûn phīⁿ-im

In the short form:

{IPA link
|
|
|
| name      =
| errortext =
| showsymbol=
}

Equally, the longer including optional names:

{IPA link
| ipa symbol= <!-- or 1st unnamed parameter-->
| label     = <!-- or 2nd unnamed paramter -->
| bracket   = <!-- or 3rd unnamed parameter -->
| name      = <!-- yes/no -->
| errortext =
| showsymbol= <!-- deprecated, use label= -->
}

• The output should be enveloped in {nowrap}.

• {IPAalink} – creates a link in angle brackets: "⟨…⟩", for showing the IPA symbol, when linking to the named article
• {IPAblink} – creates a link in IPA brackets: "[…]"
• {IPAslink} – creates a link in IPA slashes: "/…/"
