NAME

Lingua::Alphabet::Phonetic::LAPD - map ABC's to the LAPD phonetic letter names

VERSION

version 0.02

SYNOPSIS

use Lingua::Alphabet::Phonetic;
my $phonetic = Lingua::Alphabet::Phonetic('LAPD');
# prints One-Adam-OneTwo
print $phonetic->enunciate("1-A-12");

DESCRIPTION

This module provides for Lingua::Alphabet::Phonetic the LAPD phonetic alphabet used by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) and other local state law enforcement agencies across the state of California.

This is a specialization of Lingua::Alphabet::Phonetic. You do not use this module directly. All interaction should be through an Lingua::Alphabet::Phonetic.

INSPIRATION

I wrote this module along with a number of other back ends for L::A::P years ago for a gimmick on my website. Recently I was watching Adam-12 on Netflix and decided this was a sign that this module should be shared.

Unfortunately 1-A-12 comes back as 1-Adam-OneTwo instead of 1-Adam-Twelve.
