Same note as with minimal pairs #8 (-d at the end turning into kinda -t).
For "finden" and "senden" I've recorded the way I'd usually speak it and the way a professional speaker would pronounce it. In the former, the -nden turns into -n'n, -nt'n or -nd'n, depending on the speaker.
You can hear it in some of the examples on Forvo, too: https://forvo.com/word/finden/#de (speakers Vortarulo and Bartleby).
(German speakers on Forvo sometimes enunciate with lots of care, and then, the usual fusing of some sounds is not present, just as a remark.)
