แม่แบบ:alter/documentation

This template is for listing alternative spellings linking to other articles. For usage in definitions, see the separate Template:alternative form of.

This template generates a correctly formatted list of alternative forms with dialectal descriptions, using Module:alternative forms. If a dialect module has been written for the language, it will accept dialect codes. It takes numbered parameters.

|1=

The language code

|2=, |3=, and so on

The alternative form(s), which will be linked.

|4=

A blank parameter between the form(s) and dialect(s)

|5=, |6=, and so on

The dialect(s)

|altN=

Alternative display form (link text) for the terms that are linked. |alt1= is the link text for the first linked term, |alt2= for the second, and so on.

|idN=

Sense id (see {{senseid}}) for each link. |id1= is the id for the first link, |id2= for the second, and so on.

|trN=

Transliteration for each term.

Examples

• {{alter|en|crawfish|crayfish}}
• crawfish, crayfish

  Simple example without dialects.

• {{alter|hy|մուկ|մուկը||տփ}}
• (տփ) մուկ (มุก), մուկը (มูเกอ̂)

  մուկ (มุก), and մուկը (มูเกอ̂) are the terms, and "տփ" is the Armenian dialect code for Tbilisi (see Module:hy:Dialects).

• {{alter|grc|παραγίνομαι||ion|post-Classical}}
• (ion, post-Classical) παραγίνομαι (paragínomai)

  "ion" is the Ancient Greek dialect code for Ionic, and is thus expanded. "post-Classical" is not in the dialect module (Module:grc:Dialects), and is thus displayed as-is.
