Description
Locate literal IPA secondary-stress markers.
Language-processing records depend on tokenization, indexing, null sentinels and text representation. A UTF-8 byte offset, UTF-16 index, dependency link or literal feature label can be handled precisely without inferring linguistic correctness or semantic equivalence.
Locate literal IPA secondary-stress markers.
When to use this tool
Use IPA Secondary Stress Position when checking a supplied linguistic annotation, span, alignment or text-offset convention.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter transcription. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read codePointIndices, count. Use the output convention below.
Locate literal IPA secondary-stress markers. Iterate Unicode code points, return zero-based indexes of U+02CC and their count.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| transcription | Transcription | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| codePointIndices | Code Point Indices | Required. Array of safe integer; maximum items 256. |
| count | Count | Required. Safe integer. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- This recognizes a written symbol only; phonological stress, syllables and valid IPA transcription are not determined.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the appropriate tokenizer, Unicode and annotation-format conventions and validate the complete text or tree for full linguistic processing.
