afi/Ebraich

The charts below show the way in which the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) represents Modern and Biblical Hebrew language pronunciations in Wikipedia articles.

For a guide to adding IPA characters to Wikipedia articles, see {{IPA-he}}, {{IPAc-he}} and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Pronunciation § Entering IPA characters.

Since Modern Hebrew has both non-Oriental and Oriental pronunciations in Israel, certain letters may be transcribed differently depending on the background of the speaker. See Modern Hebrew phonology for a more thorough look at the sounds of Hebrew.

IPA Explanation
ˈ Primary stress (placed before the stressed syllable): Template:Script/Hebrew ('food') /ˈʔoχel/, Template:Script/Hebrew ('eating' [participle]) /ʔoˈχel/
ˌ Secondary stress, e.g. Template:Script/Hebrew ('oh, really?') /ˌhaʔumˈnam/
ː Long vowels (in Tiberian Hebrew) can be transcribed using the IPA gemination sign ː: the word for "hand" would be Template:Script/Hebrew /jaːd/ in absolute state and Template:Script/Hebrew /jad/ in construct state. Indicating normative consonant gemination uses a double consonant: Template:Script/Hebrew ('a thief') /ɡanˈnav/ not /ɡaˈnːav/
