Template documentationUsage
This template can be used to add an infobox for a phonetic sound.
This infobox can be used to describe a phonetic sound, both by its name and its IPA symbol. Additional information can be added, like the X-SAMPA letters and a graphic image file.
In general, the descriptive name corresponds with the article name. The infobox is then placed on that article page.
Parameters
Basic parameters
Only a few parameters are required to produce a useful infobox. The above header can be set, and up to four IPA symbols can be shown:
|ipa number= is required to show the sound if available and the header if |above= is omitted.
Decimals are decimal character references, also known as "Entity", to define the symbol in HTML. The template tries to find all known information with these two numbers.
Some more basic parameters:
| Voiced velar plosive | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| ɡ | |||
| IPA Number | 110 | ||
| Encoding | |||
| Entity (decimal) | ɡ | ||
| Unicode (hex) | U+0261 | ||

Up to four decimal values can be entered, to compose the symbol:
| Voiceless | |
|---|---|
| ʎ̥˔ | |
| IPA Number | 157 402A 429 |
| Encoding | |
| Entity (decimal) | ʎ̥˔ |
| Unicode (hex) | U+028E U+0325 U+02D4 |
| ipa symbol = ʎ̥˔| ipa number = 157 402A 429| decimal1 = 654| decimal2 = 805| decimal3 = 724| decimal4 =Multiple symbols
Up to eight symbols can be shown in big font.

The template tries to determine the default sound file name by the IPA symbol as defined at Module:IPA symbol/data:
{{IPA symbol|m}}→ Bilabial nasal.ogg
Priorities in parameters
The template tries to get as much information as possible from the input.Overwriting:
| above = (overwrites ipa symbol name (IPA symbol) in header)| unicode = (overwrites Unicode numbers that were determinated by the decimal numbers)Template data
