Template:IPAc-ar/doc
This is a documentation subpage for Template:IPAc-ar. It contains usage information, categories, interlanguage links and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template is used to produce a phonemic representation (using the IPA system) of Arabic words or sounds, using natural spelling to avoid the need to search for the correct phonetic symbols. The result is wikilinked to Wikipedia:IPA for Arabic. Optionally, an audio file can also be specified.
Usage
The number of parameters is always limited to 50.
Normal usage:
- {{IPAc-ar|sh|u|k|r|a|n}} produces [ʃukran]
- {{IPAc-ar|S|a|d|ii|q|ii}} produces [sˤadiːqiː]
To change the delimiters (for example, if several instances of the template need to be strung together because of the limit on the number of parameters):
- {{IPAc-ar|[-|2|a|l|l|u|gh|a|t_}} produces [ʔalluɣat‿
The full range of special values for the first parameter (changing the delimiters and/or specifying that the next parameter is an audio file) is as follows:
- -- [- -] // /- -/ AUD -]AUD //AUD -/AUD

- ' (apostrophe) for a primary stress mark (placed before the stressed syllable)
- , (comma) for a secondary stress mark (placed before the stressed syllable)
- . (period) for a syllable break
Other values used as parameters will be displayed unconverted. (The conversion system is coded in Template:c-ar.)
