A precise phonetic transcription, in which sounds are specified in detail, is known as a <i>narrow transcription</i>. A coarser transcription with less detail is called a <i>broad transcription.</i> Both are relative terms, and both are generally enclosed in square brackets.<sup id="cite_ref-IPA_1999_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-IPA_1999-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Broad phonetic transcriptions may restrict themselves to easily heard details, or only to details that are relevant to the discussion at hand, and may differ little if at all from phonemic transcriptions, but they make no theoretical claim that all the distinctions transcribed are necessarily meaningful in the language. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:RPGA_international.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/RPGA_international.svg/220px-RPGA_international.svg.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="92" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/RPGA_international.svg/330px-RPGA_international.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/42/RPGA_international.svg/440px-RPGA_international.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="645" data-file-height="270" /></a><figcaption>Phonetic transcriptions of the word <i>international</i> in two English dialects</figcaption></figure> <p>For example, the English word <i>little</i> may be transcribed broadly as <span class="IPA nowrap" lang="und-Latn-fonipa" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">[ˈlɪtəl]</span>, approximately describing many pronunciations.

articulation, commonly called the click "type" or historically the "influx", and a rear place of articulation, which when combined with the quality of the click is commonly called the click "accompaniment" or historically the "efflux". The IPA click letters indicate only the click type (forward articulation and release). Therefore, all clicks require two letters for proper notation: ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">k͡ǀ, ɡ͡ǀ, q͡ǀ</span>⟩, <i>etc.</i>, or with the order reversed if both the forward and rear releases are audible. The letter for the rear articulation is frequently omitted, in which case a ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">k</span>⟩ may usually be assumed. However, some researchers dispute the idea that clicks should be analyzed as doubly articulated, as the traditional transcription implies, and analyze the rear occlusion as solely a part of the airstream mechanism.<sup id="cite_ref-84" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-84"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>64<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In transcriptions of such approaches, the click letter represents both places of articulation, with the different letters representing the different click types, and diacritics are used for the elements of the accompaniment: ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">ǀ, ǀ̬, ǀ̃</span>⟩, <i>etc.</i></li> <li>Letters for the <a href="/wiki/Voiceless" class="mw-redirect" title="Voiceless">voiceless</a> implosives ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">ƥ, ƭ, ƈ, ƙ, ʠ</span>⟩ are no longer supported by the IPA, though they remain in Unicode. Instead, the IPA typically uses the voiced equivalent with a voiceless diacritic: ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">ɓ̥, ɗ̥</span>⟩, <i>etc.</i></li> <li>The letter for the <a href="/wiki/Voiced_retroflex_implosive" title="Voiced retroflex implosive">retroflex implosive</a>, <span title="U+1D91">⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">ᶑ </span>⟩</span>, is not "explicitly IPA approved",<sup id="cite_ref-85" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-85"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>65<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> but has the expected form if such a symbol were to be approved.</li> <li>The ejective diacritic is placed at the right-hand margin of the consonant, rather than immediately after the letter for the stop: ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">t͜ʃʼ</span>⟩, ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">kʷʼ</span>⟩.

The stave was introduced with the 1989 Kiel Convention, as was the option of placing a staved letter after the word or syllable, while retaining the older conventions. There are therefore six ways to transcribe pitch/tone in the IPA: i.e., ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">é</span>⟩, ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">˦e</span>⟩, ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">e˦</span>⟩, ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">꜓e</span>⟩, ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">e꜓</span>⟩ and ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">ˉe</span>⟩ for a high pitch/tone.<sup id="cite_ref-report75-76_105-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-report75-76-105"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>74<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-111" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-111"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>78<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-112" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-112"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>79<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Of the tone letters, only left-facing staved letters and a few representative combinations are shown in the summary on the <i>Chart</i>, and in practice it is currently more common for tone letters to occur after the syllable/word than before, as in the Chao tradition.

The IPA endorses the Chao tradition of using the left-facing tone letters, ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">˥ ˦ ˧ ˨ ˩</span>⟩, for underlying tone, and the right-facing letters, ⟨<span title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)" class="IPA" lang="und-Latn-fonipa">꜒ ꜓ ꜔ ꜕ ꜖</span>⟩, for surface tone, as occurs in <a href="/wiki/Tone_sandhi" title="Tone sandhi">tone sandhi</a>, and for the intonation of non-tonal languages.<sup id="cite_ref-113" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-113"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>note 30<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In the Portuguese illustration in the 1999 <i>Handbook</i>, tone letters are placed before a word or syllable to indicate prosodic pitch (equivalent to <span class="IPA nowrap" lang="und-Latn-fonipa" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">[↗︎]</span> global rise and <span class="IPA nowrap" lang="und-Latn-fonipa" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">[↘︎]</span> global fall, but allowing more precision), and in the Cantonese illustration they are placed after a word/syllable to indicate lexical tone. Theoretically therefore prosodic pitch and lexical tone could be simultaneously transcribed in a single text, though this is not a formalized distinction. </p><p>Rising and falling pitch, as in <a href="/wiki/Contour_tone" class="mw-redirect" title="Contour tone">contour tones</a>, are indicated by combining the pitch diacritics and letters in the table, such as grave plus acute for rising <span class="IPA nowrap" lang="und-Latn-fonipa" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">[ě]</span> and acute plus grave for falling <span class="IPA nowrap" lang="und-Latn-fonipa" title="Representation in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)">[ê]</span>.
