Template:Hamza/doc
 | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Hamza. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This template outputs the common character for the transliteration of hamza or glottal stop in Semitic languages, as well as orthographic glottal stop in many Latin-based alphabets, ʼ (U+02BC ʼ <reserved-02BC>), in place of the MOS-deprecated curly apostrophe. It is also used for ejective consonants in the International Phonetic Alphabet.
Usage
[edit source]This template does not accept any parameters.
For the reversed glottal stop letter in Hawaiian and Tongan orthography, use {{okina}}. For the straight glottal-stop letter used in some Mexican languages, use {{saltillo}}. For ʾ (ʾ) in technical transliteration, use {{rhr}} (right half ring). For the soft sign in Cyrillic, use either this or {{softsign}}, depending on the transliteration standard.
For a modifier letter double apostrophe (ˮ), enter manually ˮ. {{#section:Template:Okina/doc|apostrophes}}
