 | This is the
pronunciation key for
IPA transcriptions of Mandarin on Wikipedia. It provides a set of symbols to represent the pronunciation of Mandarin in Wikipedia articles, and example words that illustrate the sounds that correspond to them. Integrity must be maintained between the key and the transcriptions that link here; do not change any symbol or value without establishing
consensus on the
talk page first. For an introductory guide on IPA symbols, see
Help:IPA. For the distinction between [ ], / / and ⟨ ⟩, see
IPA § Brackets and transcription delimiters. |
The charts below show the way in which the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) represents Standard Mandarin pronunciations in Wikipedia articles. For a guide to adding IPA characters to Wikipedia articles, see {{ IPA}}, Template:IPA and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Pronunciation § Entering IPA characters.
See Standard Chinese phonology for more detail on the sounds of Mandarin Chinese.
