  • Anthropos phonetic alphabet

The Anthropos phonetic alphabet is a phonetic transcription system that was to be used in the journal Anthropos, originally published by Wilhelm Schmidt in 1907. Transcription is italic, without other delimiters. It shares similarities with Karl Richard Lepsius' Standard Alphabet or some Americanist phonetic notations Edward Sapir and Franz Boas introduced to the United States.
