Journal of the International Phonetic Association

The Journal of the International Phonetic Association is a peer-reviewed academic journal that appears three times a year. It is published by Cambridge [University Press] on behalf of the International Phonetic Association. It was established as Dhi Fonètik Tîtcer in 1886. In 1889, it was renamed Le Maître Phonétique and French was designated as the Association's official language. It was written entirely in the IPA, with its name being written accordingly as "" and hence abbreviated "mf", until 1971, when it obtained its current name and began to be written in the Latin script. It covers topics in phonetics and applied phonetics such as speech therapy and voice recognition, as well as "Illustrations of the IPA" that describe individual languages using the IPA. The journal is abstracted and indexed in the MLA Bibliography.
