This page provides an index to the spectrograms analyzed in the paper “A Spectrographic Analysis of Vowel Length in Rafael Delgado Nahuatl”, by Jeff Burnham and David Tuggy. These are scans of spirit-duplicated copies of the original spectrograms (long since gone the way of all flesh), so don’t expect anything too fancy or easy to read!
