pronunciation
lexeme form pronunciation, usually identical to the form's representation, but may include other indicators (pronunciation audio/IPA text may be attached as qualifiers, and duplicate values are OK if more than one pronunciation exists)
Explanations [Edit]

There are often cases when the same written word form has more than one pronunciation. Each pronunciation has a number of properties itself, such as pronunciation audio (P443), IPA transcription (P898), region in which it is used, or the references to scholarly works about it. The pronunciation (P7243) allows all pronunciation-related values to be stored together, as qualifiers of a single property value. The property itself would have the written form of the word with the linguistic stress marks applied to it (if used by the language). More than one identical value could created if they contain different IPA or sound qualifiers.

English example
Lexeme = potato
 Form F1 = potato (singular)
   pronunciation = "potato" (en)  -- for EN, we could indicate stress position with a tick, i.e. "potáto" (TBD)
     IPA = "pəˈteɪtəʊ"
     Sound = En-uk-potato.ogg
     Region = UK
   pronunciation = "potato" (en)  -- same value as above
     IPA = "pəˈteɪtoʊ"
     Sound = en-us-potato.ogg
     Region = US
   pronunciation = "potato" (en)  -- same value as above
     IPA = "pəˈteɪtə"
     Sound = LL-Q1860 (eng)-Nattes à chat-potato.wav
     Region = US (?)
 Form F2 - potatos (plural)
   ...

The above pronunciations:

  • (pəˈteɪtəʊ)
  • (pəˈteɪtoʊ)
  • (pəˈteɪtə)
