Aussie pronunciations in IPA codes
:: I'd like to list the pronunciations using the pronunciation guide in the (Aussie) Macquarie Dictionary, but they use the [[IPA]] characters which don't appear to be in a standard character set. If I can find a way to represent these (e.g. html entities), I might still list those pronunciations. [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 02:46, 1 October 2008 (EDT)

:: Okay, here is my table modified to show the Macquarie Dictionary pronunciation codes. I'm showing the codes with Lucida Sans Unicode, on the belief that that is the most widely available font that shows these characters. Also, many of the characters are very similar, and it was tedious doing this, so I can only hope that I've got no mistakes here.
