I use goldendict version 1.0.1 in fedora 17 x64. Goldendict dose not show phonetic (IPA) of searched word like Irony :\ˈī-rə-nē also ˈī(-ə)r-nē\ . Dose any body know how to enable this feature?.
further information:
I did enabled frovo pronounciation but I need to see IPA too.
I use longman,oxford and several other dictionary but none of the show IPA phonetic.

Thank tou in advance.
