Editing Breathy voice (section)

==Transcription==
A stop with breathy release or a breathy nasal is transcribed in the [[International Phonetic Alphabet|IPA]] as {{IPA|[bʱ], [dʱ], [ɡʱ], [mʱ]}} etc. or as {{IPA|[b̤], [d̤], [ɡ̈], [m̤]}} etc. Breathy vowels are most often written {{IPA|[a̤], [e̤],}} etc. Indication of breathy voice by using subscript diaeresis was approved in or before June 1976 by members of the council of [[International Phonetic Association]].<ref>{{Cite journal|title=The Association's Alphabet|journal=Journal of the International Phonetic Association|volume=6|issue=1|date=June 1976|pages=2–3|doi=10.1017/S0025100300001420|last1=j. c. w|s2cid=249403800 }}</ref>

In VoQS, the notation {{IPA|{V̤}}} is used for whispery voice (or murmur), and {{IPA|{Vʰ}}} is used for breathy voice. Some authors, such as Laver, suggest the alternative transcription {{angbr IPA|ḅạɾ}} (rather than IPA {{angbr IPA|b̤a̤ɾ}}) as the correct analysis of [[Gujarati language|Gujarati]] {{IPA|/bɦaɾ/}}, but it could be confused with the replacement of modal voicing in voiced segments with [[whispering|whispered]] phonation, conventionally transcribed with the diacritic {{IPA|◌̣}}.<ref>Laver (1994) ''Principles of Phonetics'', p. 354</ref>
