bit of a noob question

[Cyber$nake]

Hi all!
I have a simple question and that is how do you make an NPC say something. since there are sooo many speech files you could pretty much make an entirely new story using the existing stuff, but I dont even know how! Any help or links would be greatly appreciated.

In HL1, we used scripted_sentence entities to force an NPC to say something from sentences.txt... There's probably a new-fangled HL2 method that serves exactly the same purpose, though.
