Who is Luciano Canepari?
Luciano Canepari, is a professor in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Venice. He received his academic training at that university. He developed a phonetic transcription system called canIPA, based on the official IPA. The canIPA consists of 500 basic, 300 complementary and 200 supplementary symbols. It is a work in progress, intended to permit the transcription of all world languages in more exact detail than the official IPA.
His work was criticised by Alex Rotatori, a lecturer of English Phonetics, for being too complicated and for its concept of "International English", which Rotatori described as "a variety nowhere to be heard on this planet". In response, Canepari published a strongly worded denunciation of Rotatori's credentials as a phonetician and called him a "charlatan".
