Usage

The converter Template:Convert/spell will convert an amount and display the amount spelled in words. The resulting 2nd amount will be shown using a numeral ("330 ft"), unless option words=out is used. To set the rounding precision, the output unit must be specified, or put "0" to default.

Usage:     {{convert/spell |100|m|ft}}

{{convert/spell |1,234|km|mi|abbr=on}}

{{convert/spell |10.5|L|usgal|3}}

{{convert/spell |7|km|mi|case=u}}  - words with upper-case letter

{{convert/spell |7|km|mi|disp=x|long (|)}} - custom output

Use case=u to show an upper-case letter (capital letter) in the number. The template allows the same parameters as Template:Convert, and so it allows abbreviation abbr=in or abbr=out or abbr=none, wikilinks lk=in or lk=out, and adjective mode adj=on or adj=mid. The separator can also be a semicolon: disp=semi, disp=or, disp=comma, disp=x (customized), disp=sqbr (square brackets), disp=b (default as parentheses), disp=2 (or disp=out) and disp=# (or disp=number).

Examples

The examples show various options of conversions:

• {{convert/spell |950|km|mi}} → nine hundred fifty kilometres (೫೯೦ 950 km (590 mi))
• {{convert/spell |123|km|mi|abbr=on}} → one hundred twenty-three km (೭೬ 123 km (76 mi))
• {{convert/spell |95.1|km|mi|lk=out}} → ninety-five point one kilometres (೫೯.೧ 95.1 km (59.1 mi))
• {{convert/spell |140|ft|m|0}} → one hundred forty feet (೪೩ 140 ft (43 m))
• {{convert/spell |140|ft|m|words=out}} → one hundred forty feet (forty-three 140 feet (43 metres))
• {{convert/spell |140|ft|m|case=u }} → One hundred forty feet (೪೩ 140 ft (43 m))
• {{convert/spell |140|ft|m|sp=en }} → one hundred and forty feet (೪೩ 140 ft (43 m))
• {{convert/spell |1/2|ft|cm|words=out}} → one-half foot ( 1⁄2 foot (15 centimetres))
• {{convert/spell |1/2|mi}}     → one-half mile (೦.೮೦ 1⁄2 mi (0.80 km))
• {{convert/spell |2+1/2|mi}} → two and one-half miles (೪.೦ 2+1⁄2 mi (4.0 km))
• {{convert/spell |2+3/2|mi}} → two and three-half miles (೫.೬ 2+3⁄2 mi (5.6 km))
• {{convert/spell |4+7/10|ft}} → four and seven-tenths feet (೧.೪ 4+7⁄10 ft (1.4 m))
• {{convert/spell |6+50/100|ft}} → six and point five feet (೧.೯೮ 6+50⁄100 ft (1.98 m))

Display types: disp=comma, disp=semi, disp=or, disp=out, disp=number, disp=x and disp=b. The numeric results are identical to using Template:Convert to show numerals instead of words.

Common problems

Note the name of this template is "convert/spell" and omitting the suffix "/spell" will not show words for numbers. Also, putting "spell" as parameter 1 will cause the number to be treated as a template name "Convert/<number>" such as {{convert|spell|34|km}} will show "" or "^{[Convert: Invalid number]}" due to using word "spell" as a parameter.

The amount is followed by a unit-code (such as "|m") as the 2nd parameter. The output unit-code can be "0" as the 3rd parameter, to allow the default output unit to be triggered, while setting parameter 4 to a rounding precision (such as "|5") or use r=5 to set the rounding level.
