UK IPA Pop-up

Show the UK (British) IPA pronunciation of any word you highlight. Works offline.

See how any English word is pronounced in British English: just highlight it. Double-click or select a word on any web page, and UK IPA Pop-up shows its British (UK) pronunciation in the International Phonetic Alphabet, right next to the word. • Instant and offline: about 115,000 words are built into the extension. No waiting, no internet needed. • Private: the words you highlight never leave your computer. No account, no tracking, no ads. • Understands word forms: highlight "running" or "cities" and it finds "run" or "city" when needed. • Shows alternatives: words with more than one common pronunciation, like "record", show both. • Lightweight: the pop-up disappears when you click elsewhere. Great for: • English learners working on pronunciation • Teachers and students of English or linguistics • Anyone who reads English online and wants to check how a word sounds in British English How to use it: 1. Install the extension. 2. Reload any tabs that were already open. 3. Highlight a single word on a web page: its UK IPA appears above it. Good to know: • It works on single words, not phrases. • Pronunciations are British English, mostly Received Pronunciation (the standard southern British accent). • A few rare words, names and very new words may not be found.
