ထာမ်ပလိက်:pi-alternative spelling of/documentation

This template creates a definition line for alternative spellings of primary entries. Spelling is the way words are formed with letters. For other alternatives, use {{pi-alternative form of}}.

It is preferable to use this template to create a simple alternative-spelling article such as second guess rather than a redirect: the simple article can later be expanded with the alternative's specifics, such as etymology or quotations.

By default, this template displays its output with an initial capital letter. This can be overridden using |nocap=1 (see below).

This template is not meant to be used in etymology sections.

Note that users can customize how the output of this template displays by modifying their monobook.css files. See “Form of” templates for details.

Usage

Use in the definition line, most commonly as follows:

# {{pi-alternative spelling of|<primary entry goes here>}}

or

# {{pi-sc}}, ''which is an'' {{pi-alternative spelling of|<primary entry goes here>|nocap=1}}
