# fcitx5-ipa-sil
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is an IME for [Fctix 5](https://fcitx-im.org/wiki/Fcitx_5) that brings support for the [SIL IPA](https://keyman.com/keyboards/sil_ipa) input method.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This allows the user to type IPA characters fairly easly by inputing only ASCII.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Here are a few examples of SIL to IPA conversions:

|
| IPA | SIL |
|

|
|
|-----|------|
|
||
|
|
| ə | `e=` |
|
||
|
|
| ʃ | `s=` |
|
||
|
|
| ŋ | `n>` |
|
||
|
|
| a | `a` |
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**This is still a work-in-progress**! This is mostly a rough draft to allow me to follow my phonetics class on a computer. I didn't put much thought into getting it to work for other people's needs! Feel free to send me suggestions though \:)

|
## Building & trying it out!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```console
|
||
|
|
$ mkdir -p build/
|
||
|
|
$ cd build/
|
||
|
|
$ cmake ../ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
|
||
|
|
$ make
|
||
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can then restart fcitx, and add the "SIL IPA" input method to your available input methods!
