Ipswich is a town in Suffolk, England, and also a historic market town in Massachusetts; the term identifies a place name rather than a common noun. It is pronounced as a two-syllable place name with a strong initial vowel followed by a light, unstressed second syllable, and features a non-rhotic US/UK/AU realization that varies slightly with accent. The name is traditionally stressed on the first syllable, with the second syllable reduced in connected speech.
