[lojban] is there a phonologist in the house?

[Seth Gordon <lojban-out@lojban.org>]

The whole discussion of mandatory pauses and audio-visual isomorphism
reminds me of how speech-recognition software, back when I was paying
attention to such things, required ... you ... to ... pause ... between
... words in order to understand what you were saying.

If I understand correctly, 21st-century speech-recognition software does
not require this.  Are they doing this by simply matching the speech
stream against some kind of dictionary in order to guess where the word
breaks are, or are there subtle changes in pronounciation that people
use to mark word boundaries even in connected speech?
