{{Linking and page manipulation|linking and diffs}}
The {{tl|Linktext}} template creates [[Wikipedia:INLINE|inline links]] for text within the template's parameters. Each word separately links to a page with a title that matches that word on Wiktionary, by default, or on any other interwiki or [[Help:Interlanguage links|interlanguage Wikipedias]]. 

Interlanguage links in general are links from a page in one [[Wikipedia]] in one language to a page in another Wikipedia in another language. 

== Usage ==
The default target that this template links to is [[Wikipedia:Wiktionary|Wiktionary]]. To change the target, set the parameter '''pref''' to some other value. For example, "c" for commons, or "th" for Thai Wikipedia.

Use the arguments '''n1''', '''n2''', '''n3''', etc. to specify items that should not be linked.  Regular spaces will be removed from the beginning and end of these; if you must have spaces, use &amp;ensp; instead.  

If you want to have a delimiter, such as ",&amp;ensp;", appear between links, specify the delimiter with '''lim'''.

If desired, you can specify the language code with '''lang''' (rationale explained [[Template:Lang/doc#Rationale|here]]).
This is not required if Template:Linktext is [[MOS:CHINESE#Linking_to_Wiktionary|used inside a template that specifies the language]], such as [[Template:Zh]]. 

== Examples ==

:<pre>{{Linktext|This| is| a| test}}</pre>

:{{Linktext|This| is| a| test}}

:<pre>{{Linktext|This| is|n2=&amp;ensp;not| a| test}}</pre>

:{{Linktext|This| is|n2=&ensp;not| a| test}}

Also can be used to wikt-link individual Chinese characters:
:<pre>{{linktext|雲|居|道|膺}}</pre>
:{{Linktext|雲|居|道|膺}}

Examples of result of specifying "lang" (differences in characters explained [[CJK_Unified_Ideographs|here]] and [[Han_Unification#Examples_of_language_dependent_characters|here]]):
:<pre>{{Linktext|雲|緑|lang=ja}}</pre>
:{{Linktext|雲|緑|lang=ja}}

:<pre>{{Linktext|雲|緑|lang=zh}}</pre>
:{{Linktext|雲|緑|lang=zh}}
