This page contains usage information, categories, interwiki links and other content describing the template.

This is the pronunciation template for Upper Sorbian words. Every parameter generates a separate pronunciation, based on the respelling given in the parameter. The following special characters are used to specify pronunciation that cannot be deducted from the spelling:

  • ' (apostrophe) Used before a vowel to mark it as stressed; The stress mark will automatically be moved to a consonant preceding the vowel (if any).
  • - (n dash) Used between consonants to prevent assimilations.

Respellings

edit
  • <v> can be used to print the rare /v/.
  • /au/ should be spelled with <ał>.
  • <q> is used to spell internal /kʰ/. Any loan words spelled with <q> should be respelled in the module with <k>.
