Proper nounSingular International Phonetic Alphabet Plural - International Phonetic Alphabet
AbbreviationFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. The International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is a system of phonetic notation based primarily on the Latin alphabet, devised by the International Phonetic Association as a standardized representation of the sounds of spoken language. The IPA is used by foreign language students and teachers, linguists, speech pathologists and therapists, singers, actors, lexicographers, conlangers and translators. The IPA is designed to represent only those qualities of speech that are distinctive in spoken language: phonemes, intonation, and the separation of words and syllables. To represent additional qualities of speech such as tooth gnashing, lisping, and sounds made with a cleft palate, an extended set of symbols called the Extensions to the IPA is used. Occasionally symbols are added, removed, or modified by the International Phonetic Association. As of 2008, there are 107 distinct letters, 52 diacritics, and four prosody marks in the IPA proper.

Q. I've been working on translating this IPA word into English but I haven't been able to figure it out yet so i'm looking for suggestions! The word is na d Asked by atarap - Thu Feb 4 01:12:14 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. Well, you know that the alveolar nasal, alveolar tap and voiced alveolar plosive are definitely represented by "n" "r" and "d" respectively. So the consonants of your word will be n-r-d, the "r" could possibly be doubled in the spelling of the word. What needs to be determined now is what letter (or combination of letters) can be used to represent [a] and [ ] in English? Without knowing the dialect of English, I have nothing else to work from (as you know, vowels are the chief difference between dialects of English), leaving me a bit stumped. It could be a very British way of saying "narrowed" (in my Northeastern US dialect we say it more as [nae o d], and the RP is very similar if not identical), that would be my best guess.
