IPA[edit]

Nardog, you have objected to Welsh pronunciation: [ɬanˡe·dəɪrn] and /lanˡɛdɪn/. You say it is not IPA, although it pretty clearly is, or is intended to be. However I note that we use just a ' for primary stress so fixed those characters. The only other issue I can see is that e· is not in our Welsh IPA guide. I read that as half-long e. Would you concur? How should we render that? Are there any other objections here? Thanks. Sirfurboy🏄 (talk) 16:38, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

⟨ˡ⟩ means lateral release, and primary stress is denoted by ⟨ˈ⟩not ⟨'⟩—in IPA. Half-long is denoted by ⟨ˑ⟩, not ⟨·⟩. And yes, any transcription linking to a key should use the conventions laid out in the key; that's the whole point of a key. [əɪ] is not in the key either, and the note in the key says it's represented by ⟨ɛi⟩ for South Wales Welsh. Nardog (talk) 14:17, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
