CHICO-NAZARIO, J.
In rape cases, the testimony of complainant must be considered and calibrated in its entirety, and not in its truncated portion or isolated passages thereof.[27] The true meaning of answers to questions propounded to a witness is to be ascertained with due consideration of all the questions and answers given thereto. The whole impression or effect of what has been said or done must be considered, and not individual words or phrases alone.[28] Facts imperfectly stated in answer to a question may be supplied or clarified by one's answer to other questions.[29]
