Purpose
This template links to an audio file for quick listening. It is meant to be used inline with text, for pronunciations and the like. Please note that this just creates a link to the file and does not actually embed the file. If the file is Non-Free and only referenced via this template it is not in compliance with Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria § Policy #7.
Usage
- Basic
{{Audio|name of sound file|text to use as link to soundfile|help=}}
- Simple

- → Alabama (
pronunciation (help·info)) is a state located in...
- Help links
Setting |help=no

must be shown on the page.
'''Alabama''' ({{Audio|en-us-Alabama.ogg|pronunciation of "Alabama"|help=no}})

pronunciation)
