NAME

Lingua::LO::NLP::Romanize::IPA - Convert Lao syllables to the International Phonetic Alphabet

FUNCTION

This class is not supposed to be used directly. Rather use Lingua::LO::NLP::Romanize as a factory:

my $o = Lingua::LO::NLP::Romanize->new(variant => 'IPA');

Note that this is experimental and probably buggy. The code is the same as Lingua::LO::NLP::Romanize::PCGN so this should actually be a subclass, pending a proper way of accessing the class constants. However, I'm not sure it will stay that way so for now this is not going to be refactored.

new

You don't call this constructor directly bu via Lingua::LO::NLP::Romanize. It adds the following attribute:

tone: boolean indicating whether to add dicacritics for tone
