සැකිලි ප්‍රලේඛනය[නරඹන්න] [සංස්කරණය] [ඉතිහාසය] [විරේචනය]

භාවිතය

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

පළමු cell in the සැකිල්ල is for the transcription, and a second optional cell is a switch that controls the lede. With no second value, the lede ඉංග්‍රීසි උච්චාරණය: appears:

• {{IPA-en|n}} → ඉංග්‍රීසි උච්චාරණය: /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 ශබ්ද ගොනුව in an optional තෙවැනි cell:

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

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

• {{IPA-en|n|-|En-us-'n'.ogg}} → ඉංග්‍රීසි උච්චාරණය: /n/ ( අසන්න)

The similar සැකිල්ල {{pron-en}} has no lede switch:

• {{pron-en|n}} → උසුරුවනුයේ /n/
• {{pron-en|n|En-us-'n'.ogg}} → උසුරුවනුයේ /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}}, 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 {{IPAc-en}}, which links to Help:IPA/English, a chart of the subset of the IPA that is relevant to English, and automates the conversion to IPA, so that {{IPAc-en|'|w|3:r|d}} appears as /ˈwɜrd/. This provides mouse-over links to the symbols, and is now the preferred template.

For a specific transcription in a regional variety, use {{IPA-endia}} or {{IPA-all}}.

Non-English words

For 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}} → ප්‍රංශ උච්චාරණය: [o]
• Or the word "pronounced" can be used as the introduction:
  • {{IPA-fr|o|pron}} → උච්චාරණය: [o]
• Language name only:
  • {{IPA-fr|o|lang}} → ප්‍රංශ: [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}} → ප්‍රංශ: [o] ( අසන්න)
• For the default introductory phrase, however, a placeholder such as “-” is required:
  • {{IPA-fr|o|-|Fr-eau.ogg}} → ප්‍රංශ උච්චාරණය: [o] ( අසන්න)

Languages without dedicated keys

Templates have been created for languages which do not yet have dedicated key pages. Transcriptions which use these templates will link to Help:IPA for the time being; when a language-specific key is created the templates will be linked accordingly. For example, you can use {{IPA-jv|word}} for Javanese, but for the moment it will link to Help:IPA, producing සැකිල්ල:IPA-jv.

Conversion to IPA

The template {{x2i}} takes X-SAMPA symbols (ASCII equivalents of IPA symbols) and converts them to IPA.

Other language-specific templates allow you to enter ordinary letters (or conventional ASCII equivalents) in place of IPA characters, and they will be automatically converted to the phonetic symbols that are used to transcribe the language. The templates that are currently available are shown below, with examples:
