Jittejutsu (十手術) is the Japanese martial art [1] of using the Japanese weapon jitte (also known as jutte in English-language sources). [2] Jittejutsu was evolved mainly for the law enforcement officers of the Edo period [3] to enable non-lethal disarmament and apprehension of criminals who were usually carrying a sword. [4]
Jitte can occasionally be found housed in a sword-type case hiding the jitte from view entirely. This type of jitte can have the same parts and fittings as a sword, including seppa, tsuba, menuki, koiguchi, kojiri, nakago, mekugi-ana and mei. Sentan, the blunt point of the main shaft of the jitte. Tsuba, a hand guard present on some types of jitte.

This is the pronunciation key for IPA transcriptions of Italian on Wikipedia. It provides a set of symbols to represent the pronunciation of Italian in Wikipedia articles, and example words that illustrate the sounds that correspond to them.
Normally, pronunciation is given only for the subject of the article in its lead section. For non-English words and names, use the pronunciation key for the appropriate language. If a common English rendering of the non-English name exists (Venice, Nikita Khrushchev), its pronunciation, if necessary, should be indicated before the non-English one.
The differences in pronunciation are underlined in the following transcriptions; the velar [ŋ] is an allophone of /n/. Vowel length is also not phonemic.
