Hi Jennifer
I've expected that some experienced user would give you an answer sooner.
Now, here is mine for what it is worth. ;)
First, select all from the point onwards where the phrase should be
inserted, i.e. to the end of the track.
Step 1
Go to edit -> clip boundaries -> split new.
(Shortcut Control+Shift+Alt+I)
There is now a second track that holds the tail of your narration.
You can now record your phrase.
However, the further procedure depends on what recording mode is your
default (append or to new track).
Step 2a, For the former case (append):
Select only the first track and mute the second one. Record
go to Step 3
Step 2b (Record creates a new track)
Mute all. Record. There are now three tracks. Move the last one up
(Context menu, shift+m) such that the recorded track is now between
head and tail.
Step 3
Select all
Go to Tracks -> Align Tracks -> End to End
(Don't forget to unmute all tracks)
All that remains is to check if all is OK. You might wish to delete
some silence etc. In this case, do the third step again after editing.
You're ready to save or export. Note that you don't have to make the
tracks into one again. The normal export feature does this
automatically.
Cheers
Robert

Dear listers:
I’m recording a track and need to re-record and insert a small amount of
text that didn’t record well originally. Please tell me how to do that.
Thanks.
