FIG. 24.  Broadband spectrograms indicating that a sentence is very different from a concatenated string of words recorded in isolation. Words in sentence context are generally much shorter in duration, are subject to coarticulation at word boundaries, and undergo phonetic recoding -- for example, the /t/ in "shirt" has become a flap.
