Template:IPAc-pt/doc

This template is used to produce a phonetic or phonemic representation (using the IPA system) of Portuguese words or sounds, using natural spelling to avoid the need to search for the correct phonetic symbols. The result is wikilinked to Help:IPA/Portuguese. Optionally, an audio file can also be specified.

Usage

The number of parameters is always limited to 100.

Normal usage:

• {{IPAc-pt|R|e|'|g|i|ão|-|n|O|r|'|d|E|s|te|-|d|o|-|b|r|a|'|s|il|lang=br}} produces [ʁeˈɡiɐ̃w̃ nɔɾˈdɛste do bɾaˈsiw]
• {{IPAc-pt|'|R|ei|n|o|-|p|o<|r|'|t|u|gu|ê|s|lang=pt}} produces [ˈʁejno puɾˈtuɣwes]

With an audio file:

• {{IPAc-pt|R|e|'|p|ú|b|l|i|c|a|-|f|e|d|E|r|a|'|t|i|v|a|-|d|o|-|b|r|a|'|S|il|audio=Pt-br-República Federativa do Brasil.ogg|lang=br}}
  produces [ʁeˈpublika fedɛɾaˈtiva do bɾaˈziw] ()
• {{IPAc-pt|'|c|r|u|Z|-|v|e<|r|'|m|e|lh|a|-|p|o|<|r|t|u|'|gu|e|S|a|audio=Pt-pt-Cruz Vermelha.ogg|lang=pt}}
  produces [ˈkɾuʒ vɨɾˈmeʎa poɾtuˈɣweza] ()

To change the brackets to slashes:

• {{IPAc-pt|e|'x|em|p|l|o|lang=br|slashes=yes}} → /eˈzẽplo/

or

• {{IPAc-pt|al|'|G|a|r|v|e|lang=pt|slashes=y}} → /aɫˈɡaɾve/

The following parameters have special meanings:

• - (hyphen) for a space between words
• _ (underscore) Liaison
• ' (apostrophe) for a primary stress mark (placed before the stressed syllable)
• , (comma) for a secondary stress mark
• < (less-than) for an unstressed mark (placed after the unstressed vowel, in same or next parameter)

Other values used as parameters will be displayed unconverted. The conversion system is coded in {{c-pt-br}} and {{c-pt-pt}}.
