Analyses of increasingly large speech corpora reveal, however, that temporal variation in speech is highly constrained. Within a language\/dialect, different speakers produce duration patterns \u2014\u00a0such as the distinction in length between tense and lax vowels \u2014\u00a0that are [&hellip;]"}
