Usage

This template formats IPA transcriptions and links them to Help:IPA/Portuguese. The transcription should match the conventions of that key; for narrower dialect transcriptions, use {{IPA-all}}, which links to a more complete IPA key.

The first cell in the template is for the transcription, and a second optional cell is a switch that controls the lede. With no second value, the lede Portuguese pronunciation: appears:

• {{IPA-pt|bo}} → Portuguese pronunciation: [bo]

• {{IPA-pt|bo|pron}} → ᱨᱟᱹᱲ [bo]

• {{IPA-pt|bo|lang}} → ᱯᱚᱨᱛᱩᱜᱤᱡᱽ: [bo]

• {{IPA-pt|bo|eu}} → ᱤᱣᱨᱳᱯᱤᱭᱚ ᱯᱚᱨᱛᱩᱜᱤᱡᱽ: [bo]

• {{IPA-pt|bo|br}} → ᱵᱽᱨᱟᱡᱤᱞᱤᱭᱟᱹᱱ ᱯᱚᱨᱛᱩᱜᱤᱡᱽ: [bo]

• {{IPA-pt|bo|local}} → ᱛᱷᱟᱱᱤᱛ ᱞᱮᱠᱟᱛᱮ [bo]

• {{IPA-pt|bo|IPA}} → ᱟᱭᱯᱤᱮ: [bo]

• {{IPA-pt|bo|}} → [bo]

Any of these may be combined with a sound file in an optional third cell:

• {{IPA-pt|bo|IPA|Pt-br-bo.ogg}} → ᱟᱭᱯᱤᱮ: [bo] ()

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

• {{IPA-pt|bo|-|Pt-br-bo.ogg}} → Portuguese pronunciation: [bo] ()

Text size

By default, this template sets 85% fontsize. That is acceptable for use in normal text, but when used inside an infobox (which already reduces text size to 88%), it results in a text size of 85% of 88% = 75% of the normal text size. That breaches which requires all text to be no less than 85% of normal text size.

The size parameter allows the text size to be changed. Omitting the parameter defaults to 85%. When used in an infobox, this template must have the size parameter set to no less than 97% (97% of 88% = 85%).

• {{IPA-pt|ˈʃaɡɐs}} → Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈʃaɡɐs]

• {{IPA-pt|size=97%|ˈʃaɡɐs}} → Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈʃaɡɐs]

Small text

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

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 Javanese pronunciation: [word].

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.
