Template:Trans/doc

This is the documentation for Template:Trans. This template allows for automatic transcription of strings in Rakal. For tooltip formatting, see Template:Tooltip. (Note that while some IPA symbols, namely m n ɴ and ʢ are (sometimes) properly written superscript, tooltips can't handle formatting.) Trans/ipa controls the letter—IPA mapping. See that page for detail on input and output.

Optional named parameters:
 * b: If you use this parameter, the IPA output is wrapped in phonetic square brackets (we both) (the default is phonemic slashes ). This parameter is inconsistently used and often you find e.g. phonetic  in slashes.
 * nb: You can use this parameter, indicating that it is not the beginning of a word/phrase, necessary if there are any more than 20 parameters, which will need more than one use of the template to type in all of the letters. The IPA output is not preceded by either brackets or slashes:.
 * ne: not the end:.
 * Two of these can be used in combination: you can use both nb and ne to type entirely in the middle: . You can use both nb and b to get a square bracket only on the end, and vice versa:,.
