Ambiguous Sequences

In most cases, Phonology Assistant (PA) will accurately divide phonetic transcriptions into phones.

However, there may be cases in which a data source contains sequences of phonetic characters you would like to be treated as a single phone, or unit, but that PA, by default, will not. These sequences are considered to be ambiguous.

For example, you may want to treat ai as a single phone.
