This template formats pronunciation respellings of English words. It puts the input in italics, hyphenates each value so it will represent a syllable, and links to Help:Pronunciation respelling key. Stressed syllables are input in uppercase and will appear slightly smaller than usual uppercase letters.

Notation must be spelled accordingly to the respelling key at Help:Pronunciation respelling key. For example, the word pronunciation (Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.) is respelled Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.; using this template, the formatting is:

  • {{respell|prə|NUN|see|AY|shən}}Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.

How to use

On Wikipedia, respelling is most commonly used to help clarify the pronunciation of a name or topic in the lead section or introductory paragraph of an article. Per the Manual of Style, respelling may only follow and augment a corresponding International Phonetic Alphabet template (e.g., {{IPAc-en}}) and may never be used in place of one. The template provides a link to a key so that readers may easily discover how to pronounce an easily mispronounced or difficult-to-pronounce word. For example:

  • Worcestershire (Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1. Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.) is a county located in central England.
    '''Worcestershire''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|w|ʊ|s|t|ər|ʃ|ər}} {{respell|WUUS|tər|shər}}) is a county located in central [[England]].

Common practice is to put no punctuation except one space between the IPA and the respelling for clarity, as in:

  • Massachusetts (Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1. Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1., Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1. Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.) is the most populous state in New England.
    '''Massachusetts''' ({{IPAc-en|ˌ|m|æ|s|ə|ˈ|tʃ|uː|s|ɪ|t|s}} {{respell|MASS|ə|CHOO|sits}}, {{IPAc-en|-|z|ɪ|t|s}} {{respell|-zits}}) is the most populous state in [[New England]].

Any argument containing an underscore or beginning or ending with a hyphen will not generate adjoining hyphens and will instead turn the underscore into a space, allowing for denoting word boundaries, alternate pronunciations, and affix ellipses. For example:

  • Avram Noam Chomsky: {{respell|av|RAHM|_|NOHM|_|CHOM|skee}}Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.
  • Copenhagen: {{respell|KOH|pən|HAY|gən|,_-|HAH|-}}Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.

An argument beginning in (- or ending in -) will also suppress the extra hyphen, so that optional syllables can be indicated.

  • coupe: {{respell|KOOP|(-ay)}}Lua error: Internal error: The interpreter exited with status 1.
