# `convert_phonetics()` supports raw Unicode input or escaped Unicode sequences
# (\uxxxx), but raw Unicode is not supported in R package documentation,
# hence the ugly examples
convert_phonetics("\\u02cch\\u025b\\'lo\\u028a", from = "ipa", to = "xsampa")
convert_phonetics(
  c("\\u02cch\\u025b\\'lo\\u028a", "w\\u025dld"), from = "ipa", to = "xsampa"
)
convert_phonetics("\\u02cch\\u025b\\'lo\\u028a", from = "ipa", to = "arpabet")
convert_phonetics(
