Usage
This template is used to directly format IPA characters. Unlike {{IPA}}, it does not add anything before the formatted characters. ({{IPA}} adds the word "IPA", linked to Wiktionary:International Phonetic Alphabet, as well as a superscripted "(key)", linked to a language-specific Appendix explaining that language's pronunciation, e.g. Appendix:English pronunciation.) It takes parameters similar to {{IPA}}, most notably one or more unnamed parameters listing IPA pronunciations. For example:
From {{fr-conj-auto}} for -ger verbs:
(to indicate that the {{m|fr||-g-}} is a “soft” {{IPAchar|/ʒ/}} and not a “hard” {{IPAchar|/ɡ/}})
gives:
(to indicate that the -g- is a “soft” /ʒ/ and not a “hard” /ɡ/)
Note that unlike most pronunciation templates, this template does not have a parameter for specifying a language.
Parameters
|1=,|2=,|3=...- Indicates one or more pronunciations. These should be formatted in correct IPA and be surrounded by slashes
/ /for phonemic representations, and square bracketsfor phonetic representations. They will be displayed separated by commas. |qualN=- Specifies a qualifier to be placed before pronunciation N. This is formatted with the
{{qualifier}}template. |refN=- Specifies one or more reference footnotes to be placed after pronunciation N.
|ref=corresponds to|1=,|ref2=corresponds to|2=, etc. The footnote superscript appears directly after the corresponding pronunciation. If you specify this, you should include a===References===section with<references />in it. To specify multiple footnotes for a single respelling, separate them with!!!(with or without spaces). To specify a name for a given footnote, use<<name:NAME>>directly after the footnote text, as if<ref name="NAME">...</ref>were used, and to use a previously named footnote a second time, use only<<name:NAME>>with an empty footnote text, as if<ref name="NAME" />were used. See{{IPA}}for more information on the syntax of the|ref=argument. The parameter|nN=is a deprecated synonym; please do not use.
