This online keyboard let’s you type IPA using your hardware keyboard. The full IPA character set is arranged into 4 layouts:
- Main: most common characters;
- WIth Shift key down: the rest of most common characters;
- With Alt key down: diacritics;
- With Alt+Shift down: tone marks, clicks and the rest characters.
Press Shift and/or Alt keys on your hardware keyboard to learn the additional layouts. When you are happy, just copy the content of the field with your usual “Select All” and “Copy” commands.
Hi! This is the first iteration of the keyboard. Please, give it a try and let us know here in the comments your thoughts on the character layout, whether any characters are missing or any features you would like to see added.
Happy typing!
How can I do to write Phonemes in social media. COPY AND PASTE?
When I press ctrl+c (I’m using Chrome on Windows 10), it doesn’t copy the selected text, and it also replaces it with “ɔ”. (I can right-click to copy it, but if I forget and press ctrl+c, it’s frustrating and can make me lose what I’ve done.
Then if I press ctrl+z, it doesn’t undo it, and it also types a “z”.
It will make this tool a lot nicer to use if you:
In any case, this can certainly be a very useful tool, and I appreciate it regardless.
Thank you!
Thanks a lot for the feedback. This certainly needs to be addressed.
Would it be possible to get a find/replace function for this? Or at least retain the highlighting from the transcription?
Thanks! Great feature request, will add it to the pipeline.
how would you say uh-oh I’d say ɒʔəʊ
tophonetics is so good
it have me to know the street and do the exercises about phonetic well
thanks so much, tophnetics
toPhonetics is great
Hi, after I edit the ipa here, how do I hear it?
Not yet an option.
well, i cant copy it, EVEN if i go into inspect element, soo, yeah, its pointless
That’s weird. Cmd+C, Ctrl+C, right-click, nothing works? What OS/browser are you using?
Great
Just a short notice to congratulate you on your work! This keyboard works flawlessly on my (old) Mac, exactly as expected. It was a very nice touch to figure out if this page is being seen by a computer with a Mac keyboard layout and adjust the key labels for the modifier keys accordingly (I keep forgetting which one is supposed to do what!).
Simple, but effective, and I’d say it covers 99% of my incredibly limited IPA vocabulary.
Thanks again!
Thanks! Will see re detecting the layout in the future, but for now it’s just you being lucky to have a mac. 🙂
