The pronunciation guide for Norwegian and Swedish used to be in a joint table. Since this was getting overly complicated and unworkable in the long run, the two were split by me. Previous discussion can be found at Help talk:IPA for Swedish and Norwegian.

I'm a native speaker of Norwegian and I've never encountered the word "kind" before. Aren't there better words to better exemplify this sound, or if there aren't, perhaps another footnote is in order? Also, doesn't it conflict with the other "sh" sound listed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.215.28.37 ( talk) 22:19, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
The nearest English equivalent for "iː" is given as "lead", but that could be pronounced two very different ways in English! 2602:306:CD0E:D410:A87B:36CD:8863:5F55 ( talk) 16:32, 7 January 2016 (UTC)
