Is there some term or trick to listening difficulty when I sort of "jump to conclusion" on the word combination I think I heard? For instance when hearing the Spanish lo he leído hace poco I thought I heard love he ido hace poco .
I mean more than just the same phenome, like Si and sí, but when the words combine to make the effect ambiguous, like how Les aplaudía can sound like "lesa plaudía". Is there term for this? Sandhi?

"Misparsing" probably. Definitely not "sandhi".

Speech segmentation errors that sometimes may lead to lexical reinterpretation: l'abondance > la bondance. La abundancia > La bundancia. Misperception of coarticulation.

French is wonderful for these.
