Template:fi-pronunciation/documentation

This template automatically provides pronunciation info, such as IPA, hyphenation and rhymes, for Finnish terms. The template uses Module:fi-pronunciation as a back-end, which itself uses Module:fi-IPA and Module:fi-hyphenation.

The IPA describes a careful pronunciation in Standard Spoken Finnish.

Note that this template does not automatically recognize glottal stops, -np- change, other minute details etc. Do not use the template unless you know for certain how a word is pronounced.

The hyphenation and rhymes are generated automatically as long as the supplied pronunciation is not too different from the pronunciation based on the page title alone. However, either can be also manually supplied.

Parameters

 * The word that is to be converted. If omitted, the word is taken from the name of the current page. However, the following notes should be considered first:
 * The character  can be used to indicate final gemination, i.e. that the initial consonant of the next word is geminated in pronunciation. This happens, for example, with the dictionary forms of verbs (the first infinitive) and at the end of nominals inflecting like  (ending in -e in the nominative singular form and with a -tta or -ttä in the partitive singular form). More information can be found in the Wikipedia article for, specifically its sandhi section.
 * A parameter  is equivalent to providing the current page name plus  . For example, on,  is a shortcut for.
 * For compound words, which have secondary stresses, you should separate the parts of the compound with a " ". For example, on, . The final gemination sign should be included with individual parts, if applicable. For example, on ,.
 * For compound words with many components, separate the main two components with, such as  ( + ). If ambiguous (slash could go in more than one spot), use only hyphens instead.
 * Some suffixes may further incur secondary stresses in otherwise irregular locations, such as (such that -Oi- is always in a stressed syllable). These are indicated using , such as.
 * The template automatically recognises diphthongs and groups them as one syllabic unit. If a word has a vowel sequence that could be a diphthong but is really two syllables, insert a " " between the two. For example, on ,
 * For optional syllable breaks, use, like for certain genitive forms:
 * "Pronunciation respellings" of foreign words can be supplied as a parameter here.
 * Consonants or vowels spelled long but often pronounced short (in loanwords like ) can be specified with ; for example,   represents a word spelled, but pronounced like  (or sometimes as spelled).
 * Likewise, consonants or vowels spelled short but usually (or possibly) pronounced long can be specified by adding, after the sound, such as.
 * The respelling should not be capitalized and should be in lowercase. The only exception is, used for "native"  (as a weak grade of  in words like , ,  and  , as opposed to "borrowed"  in words like  and . While these are not distinguished in Standard Finnish, they are in dialects where the native phoneme can have different realizations.
 * Borrowed (in e.g. ) as opposed to native  (in e.g. ) can be marked as  . These two are not distinguished in Standard Finnish either, however.
 * The weak grade of the "native" can be marked as.

 * Supplies additional, alternative pronunciations. Hyphenations and rhyme data must be supplied manually using,   etc. If supplied, hyphenation or rhyme data will only be generated automatically for the first pronunciation, and if the hyphenation or rhyme info depends on the pronunciation, they must be supplied manually with  ,   and so on (see below). A   may be supplied as an additional pronunciation to mean "like in the title".

Syllables are separated with, while words (in compounds, etc.) should be separated with  . You can also supply   to hide the hyphenation. Note that the hyphenation given must match the spelling of the entry, not the (respelled) pronunciation.
