Suprasegmentals (IPA signs)

Primary stress [ˈ]


Primary stress is used to mark the loudest syllable in the
word. Primary stress is marked in IPA by putting a raised
vertical line [ˈ] at the beginning of the syllable.
Example: teacher - /ˈtiː.tʃə/

Secondary stress [ˌ]


Secondary stress is used to mark the syllables which aren’t
completely stressed, but aren’t as loud as the primary stress.
Secondary stress is marked with a lowered vertical line [ˌ] at the
beginning of the syllable.
Example: education - /ˌedʒ.ʊˈkeɪ.ʃən/

Long [:]
Long is the colon [:] placed after a vowel, to
show that it is long.
Example: record - /rɪˈkɔːd/

Syllable break [.]


Syllable break is a division in a word between syllables.
Example: marking - /ˈmɑː.kɪŋ/
