==Consonants==

Consonants vary little between dictionaries. The ones which do are those which start:
:''rich,'' {{IPA|/r ~ ɹ ~ ɻ ~ (r) ~ (ɹ)/}};
:''which,'' {{IPA|/ʍ ~ hw ~ (h)w ~ w/}};
:and ''new,'' {{IPA|/njuː ~ nuː/}}.
Wikipedia editors have decided to go with {{IPA|/ˈrɪtʃ/, /ˈhwɪtʃ/, /njuː/}} for these words.
