Help:IPA for Talossan

There are three ways to represent the International Phonetic Alphabet on TalossaWiki:

Template:IPA

This template classifies the enclosed text as "IPA" text, so that other templates or people's personal CSS adjustments can make appropriate changes to its display. Example: {{IPA|lɛˈd͡ʒaʒ}} displays as: lɛˈd͡ʒaʒ

Template:IPA-all

This template takes any IPA transcription and presents it in a standardized and appealing format, with choices of lede and the possibility of including an audio recording. {{IPA-all|lɛˈd͡ʒaʒ|pron|lexhatx.ogg}} displays as: pronounced [lɛˈd͡ʒaʒ] ( )

Template:IPA-t

This template breaks up IPA symbols into separate phonemes, with a pronunciation guide available on mouseover. {{IPA-all|l|E|ˈ|J|a|Z|lexhatx.ogg}} displays as: ɛ [l] ( )

Where symbols appear in pairs, the one to the right represents a rounded vowel.
Speakers who prefer a later pronunciation merge the rounded vowels with the unrounded one.

Note: The IPA stress mark (ˈ) comes before the syllable that has the stress, in contrast to stress marking in pronunciation keys of some dictionaries published in the United States.
