| Citazioni | The act of speaking gives rise to a continuous train of sound waves, the ‘speech signal’; it is, of course, the impingement of this on the ears of a hearer that effects communication via speech. The speech signal, like any other sound, can be completely specified in terms of frequency, intensity, and duration. |
