Note: in multi-font samples, switching into a non installed font can turn into a default with the bug to be explained. Check your installed fonts for correct interpretation of tests.

[edit] Affricates and double articulation

If your browser uses Arial Unicode MS to display IPA characters, the following incorrectly formed sequences may look better than in correct order (letter, line, letter) due to a bug in that font: ts͡, tʃ͡, tɕ͡, dz͡, dʒ͡, dʑ͡, tɬ͡, kp͡, ɡb͡, ŋm͡. (curved lines are supposed to cover both characters)

Here is a sample of how they are seen in your IPA configuration: t͡s, d͡z, t͡ʃ, d͡ʒ, t͡ɕ, d͡ʑ, t͡ɬ, k͡p, ɡ͡b, ŋ͡m,

and in other several fonts:

  • Chrysanthi Unicode: t͡s, d͡z, t͡ʃ, d͡ʒ, t͡ɕ, d͡ʑ, t͡ɬ, k͡p, ɡ͡b, ŋ͡m
  • Doulos SIL: t͡s, d͡z, t͡ʃ, d͡ʒ, t͡ɕ, d͡ʑ, t͡ɬ, k͡p, ɡ͡b, ŋ͡m

If in the box IPA-text to the right you see a symbol resembling an upper-case Y rather than a lower-case open-tail g, you may are experiencing a well-known bug in the font MS Reference Sans Serif or other; switching to Lucida Sans Unicode or Arial Unicode should fix it.
