noticings
Two noticings for today:
a large number of announcers (and probably others) in Southern California pronounce "orange" as "are"+ange rather than "or"+ange
This one appears to be consistent. If the speaker does it, he/she does it all of the time.
many people (including me) sometimes insert 'l' into the word "both" so it sounds like "bowl"+th
This one is in free variation. The same person will sometimes do it and at other times not.
