Over the last 50 years, sociolinguistic research in settings in which a regional, social, or ethnic non-standard linguistic variety is used alongside the standard variety of the same language has steadily increased.

It was found that for the segments whose duration can be most easily prolonged (i.e. /l/, nasals and fricatives) t...
