Wikipedia editors have decided to go with {{IPAc-en|r|ɪ|tʃ}}, {{IPAc-en|tʃ|ɑːr}}, {{IPAc-en|hw|ɪ|tʃ}}, {{IPAc-en|nj|uː}} for these words.
 
A few dictionaries, such as dictionary.com, use "{{IPA|/y/}}" for {{IPA|/j/}}, which is at odds with the official IPA usage, which defines {{IPA|/y/}} as [[close front rounded vowel|close front rounded '''vowel''']] (as in French ''tu'' or German ''über''), and appears as such in transcriptions of French and German, as well as some dialects of English.
