(please add the primary text of this usage example)


This is used to show usage examples (not quotations or collocations) following a definition line, where the format of the usage example (inline or multiline) is automatically determined by the size of the generated text. For collocations, use {{coa}}. See WT:USEX for some general guidelines regarding usage examples.

The template call {{uxa|...}} works identically to {{ux|....|inline=auto}}. See {{ux}} and {{uxi}} for parameters and examples.
