Phonetic symbols with sounds

This article contains **[phonetic transcriptions](/wiki/Phonetic_transcription "Phonetic transcription") in the [International Phonetic Alphabet](/wiki/International_Phonetic_Alphabet "International Phonetic Alphabet") (IPA)**. For an introductory guide on IPA symbols, see [Help:IPA](/wiki/Help:IPA "Help:IPA"). For the distinction between \[ \], / / and ⟨⟩, see [IPA § Brackets and transcription delimiters](/wiki/International_Phonetic_Alphabet#Brackets_and_transcription_delimiters "International Phonetic Alphabet").

**This article includes inline links to audio files.** If you have trouble playing the files, see [Wikipedia Media help](/wiki/Wikipedia:MH "Wikipedia:MH").

This chart provides audio examples for phonetic [vowel](/wiki/Vowel "Vowel") symbols. The symbols shown include those in the [International Phonetic Alphabet](/wiki/International_Phonetic_Alphabet "International Phonetic Alphabet") (IPA) and added material. The chart is based on the official IPA [vowel chart](/wiki/Vowel_chart "Vowel chart").[\[1\]](#cite_note-1)

The International Phonetic Alphabet is an alphabetic system of [phonetic notation](/wiki/Phonetic_transcription "Phonetic transcription") based primarily on the [Latin alphabet](/wiki/Latin_alphabet "Latin alphabet"). It was devised by the [International Phonetic Association](/wiki/International_Phonetic_Association "International Phonetic Association") as a standardized representation of the sounds of spoken language.[\[2\]](#cite_note-2)

Within the chart “close”, “open”, “mid”, “front”, “central”, and “back” refer to the placement of the sound within the mouth.[\[3\]](#cite_note-3) At points where two sounds share an intersection, the left is unrounded, and the right is rounded which refers to the shape of the lips while making the sound.[\[4\]](#cite_note-4)
