Irony: how do you pronounce that? IPA isn't exactly readable.

    Right, but it's unintuitive and takes a while to decrypt. Browser extension idea: hover over IPA to see only the relevant glyph pronunciations.

      Hovering over it does reveal English approximations in the wikipedia article. Did you try? I'm running FF19 and the only addon is NoScript.

        Well I'll be damned!! Wikipedia just keeps getting better :)

  1) It's pronounced like a native English speaker would guess. SHIH buh leth. 2) IPA is tough, but in Wikipedia's case, if you mouse-over each IPA symbol, it'll give you a "/ʃ/ 'sh' in 'shy'" and so on.
