Ambiguous Sequences
Unsure as to whether or not a consonant cluster should be treated as one or two phones? PA allows you to experiment with different interpretations of ambiguous sequences.
In the following screenshot, the sequence kp is treated as one Consonant.
This treatment is reflected in the search results as shown in the CV Pattern field and consonant chart below. If this treatment turns out to not make analytical sense we can easily uncheck the “Treat as one unit?” checkbox to see the effects of the other interpretation.
