| | Language Log: The International Phonetic Alphabet |
 | | Nowadays, with computer word-processing there is no reason not to use standard IPA symbols. | | | So it isn't as if the IPA is a recent creation or that publishers and textbook authors have been unaware of it. | | | An example of a textbook that does use the IPA is R. |

| | Because of the precision the IPA affords, it is used in everything from language journals to dictionaries. | | | As language enthusiasts and polyglots become aware of the usefulness of the International Phonetic Alphabet, there will be more people using a precise means of transcribing the sounds of the world's languages. | | | While linguists may not have come up with the perfect alphabet, they have developed a systematic way of transcribing virtually every human sound on the planet with a creation known as the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). |

| | The International Phonetic Alphabet |
| | Representing IPA characters on a computer is very inconvenient: the characters themselves are unusual and consequently not found in most fonts, and diacritics are many. | | | ASCII IPA uses a capital Z. [ʂ] ([s.] in ASCII IPA): voiceless retroflex fricative | | | Besides, even when it works correctly, there are places where using Unicode representations is inconvenient, for example in Usenet articles. |
