Abstract
THE piece of sound film reproduced in Fig. 1 shows the last part of the vowel and the first part of the consonant in a registration of ash. The vibratory bits that characterise the vowel can be traced in ever-diminishing strength to the third line in the reproduction. The mixture of regular and irregular vibrations that characterise the consonant can be traced back to the middle of the first line. The end of the vowel and the beginning of the consonant are seen to be overlapped.
