IPA Dictionary

The Auto Transcription tab configures the dictionary sources consulted when generating automatic IPA transcriptions. Sources are listed in priority order — dictionaries higher in the list are consulted first.

Available source types include:

• Language dictionaries — Built-in IPA dictionaries for specific languages (e.g., English (eng))
• User-entered transcriptions — Transcriptions previously entered by the user

Use the + button to add a dictionary source and the arrow buttons to reorder sources. Click Auto-transcribe IPA tiers... at the bottom to run auto-transcription on the current session.

The Lookup tab provides a console for looking up IPA transcriptions in the dictionary. Type an orthographic word to see its IPA transcription(s).

The lookup console supports the following commands:

• lookup <word> — Look up a word's IPA transcription
• add <word> <ipa> — Add a transcription to the user dictionary
• remove <word> — Remove a word from the user dictionary
• use <dictionary> — Switch to a specific dictionary
• list — List available dictionaries
