User:Grover cleveland/IPATest

These pages demonstrate the template Template:Ipa-en-test (actually a system of templates) which can convert Wikipedia's diaphonemic IPA-en format into RP and GenAm.

Each example demonstrates the use of Template:Ipa-en-test to convert a sample keyword from IPA-en format. It is currently configured to convert to RP only if the user preference for "Internationalisation/language" is set to en-GB, otherwise it leaves it in the diaphonemic version. To see the "other" version (either diaphonemic or RP), you must change and save your user preference.
Because each template is slow to load, I have spread the examples over multiple pages.
If this proof of concept is successful, I can look at improving the performance.
It may even be possible to extend this to generate other formats, such as pronunciation respelling.

Known limitations (can easily be overcome with a little more work)

Cannot accept input of longer than 11 characters (this limit can easily be increased to any arbitrary value).
Cannot accept input including ɚ or ɝ (and probably some other unusual characters).
There is currently one known bug that results in r following schwa and immediately before a vowel being sometimes wrongly omitted in RP
