Aiuto:AFI/Galizian

This is the pronunciation key for IPA transcriptions of Galizian on Wikipedia.

It provides a set of symbols to represent the pronunciation of Galizian 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.

Notes

↑ ^1,0 ^1,1 ^1,2 Voiced stops /b/, /d/, and /ɡ/ are lenited to approximants [β̞, ð̞, ɣ˕] (frequently represented without the undertacks) of the same place of articulation except after a pause or a nasal vowel, when they are stops [b, d, ɡ], like English b, d, g.
↑ ^2,0 ^2,1 Many speakers delateralize /ʎ/ to Template:IPAblink (normally represented without the undertack).
↑ /θ/ merges with /s/ in western dialects.
↑ ^4,0 ^4,1 The alveolar sibilants [s, z] are realized as laminal in some dialects, much like the ordinary alveolar sibilants found in French, German, Mandarin Chinese as well as the Slavic languages (Template:Harvcoltxt).
↑ ^5,0 ^5,1 ^5,2 Template:IPAblink, Template:IPAblink and Template:IPAblink are allophones of /f/, /s/ and /ʃ/, respectively, before voiced consonants.
↑ In some dialects, /ɡ/ is spirantized to [ħ ~ ʕ] or [h ~ ɦ] in a phonological process known as gheada. For simplicity, this process is resepresented here with [ħ] only.
↑ /x/ may be used in loanwords, foreign names and hispanicized names like kharxa, Bach, Araújo (instead of Araúxo, pron. with Template:IPAblink) and Fagilde or Fajilde (instead of Faxilde, pron. with Template:IPAblink).
↑ Template:Harvcoltxt
↑ There are only three unstressed word-final vowels in Galician: [ɐ, ɪ, ʊ]. The first one is phonemically /a/, whereas the other two vowels are a result of the neutralizations of, respectively, the non-open front vowels /ɛ–e–i/ and the non-open back vowels /ɔ–o–u/. This neutralization also applies to unstressed monosyllabic words; for instance, the article o is pronounced Template:IPAblink. In some cases, vowels from the final unstressed set appear in other positions, as e.g. in the word termonuclear [ˌtɛɾmʊnukleˈaɾ], because the prefix termo- is pronounced [ˈtɛɾmʊ] (Template:Harvcoltxt, Template:Harvcoltxt).
