IPA is the ''International Phonetic Association'', and their ''International Phonetic Alphabet'' shares that abbreviation. The association was established in 1886 in [[Paris]].
The aim of the IPA is to promote the scientific study of phonetics and the various practical applications of that science through the provision of a notational standard for the phonetic representation of all languages.<ref>[http://www.arts.gla.ac.uk/IPA/index.html The IPA homepage]</ref>
