This template is used to display English International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). The pronunciation is broken into individual diaphonemes so that they will have tooltips (mouse-over text) to indicate pronunciation. All diaphonemes from Help:IPA/English are available.
The transcription system of Help:IPA/English, upon which this template relies, is diaphonemic, i.e. meant to cover multiple major varieties of English at once. If you wish to give a narrow transcription of a pronunciation in a certain variety of English, use {{IPA-endia}} or {{IPA-all}} instead.
The initial argument can be used to indicate a pronunciation prescript. The available pronunciation codes are:
| Code | Output |
|---|---|
lang |
English: |
local |
locally |
ipa |
IPA: |
uk |
UK: |
us |
US: |
uklang |
British English: |
uslang |
American English: |
The first argument that is not a pronunciation code will be treated as a diaphoneme. All diaphonemes listed at Help:IPA/English are available (except the ones that span two syllables such as /aɪ.ər/, /iːər/ and /iə/, which need to be input as aɪ|.|ər, iː|ər and i|ə). Also available are /ɪəˈr/, /ɛəˈr/, /ʊəˈr/, /ɪəˌr/, /ɛəˌr/, and /ʊəˌr/, preserved for when a centering diphthong precedes a stress.
There are some separator codes as well. Use an underscore _ to separate words. When multiple pronunciations for the same word(s) are possible, use a comma and an underscore ,_ to separate the variants. As necessary, use a hyphen - to indicate omitted syllables. Diaphonemes are underlined, but separators are not, and separators do not have any tooltip text.
See the collapsed table below for a full list of diaphoneme codes.

If "[invalid input]" is displayed, it means that an unsupported input was used. Such instances are tallied at Category:Ill-formatted IPAc-en transclusions, where they can be reviewed and fixed.
Notations with audio links will appear at Category:Articles including recorded pronunciations (English), Category:Articles including recorded pronunciations (UK English) or Category:Articles including recorded pronunciations (US English) depending on the label parameter.
