   • 2005, Jack Windsor Lewis, “A. C. Gimson, "JIPA" and the m.f.”, in Journal of the International Phonetic Association, volume 35, number 2, →DOI, →JSTOR, pages 215, 219:

     Only in 1970 when it ceased, in some ways sadly, to be that unique phenomenon a publication entirely in phonetic script, did it acquire its present title of the Journal of the International Phonetic Association, in short JIPA, usually in speech acronymised by English-speakers to /dʒaɪpә/. [...] In his remaining two and a half years as editor of JIPA he only reviewed on two occasions, each time taking a pair of books related in subject matter.
