Template:IPAc-yue

Standard usage: {{IPAc-yue|initial|final|tone number}}

This template converts Jyutping to IPA, but one can also use some IPA symbols directly (listed below).

Use 'm0'/'M' and 'ng0'/'NG' for syllabic nasals [m̩] and [ŋ̍] respectively.

Periods indicate intra-word syllable boundaries; hyphens (spaces) indicate word boundaries.
