Wugapodes: creating stub on sociophonetics

---

'''Sociophonetics''' is a branch of [[linguistics]] that broadly combines the methods of sociolinguistics and phonetics. It addresses teh questions of how socially constructed variation in the sound system is used and learned. The term was first used by Denise Deshaies-Lafontaine in their 1974 dissertation on Quebecois French, with early work in the field focusing on answering chielfy sociolinguistic questions using phonetic methods and data. The field began to expand rapidly in the 1990s: interest in the field increased and the boundaries of the field expanded to include a wider diversity of topics. Currently, sociphonetic studies often employ methods and insight from a wide range of fields including psycholinguistics, clinical linguistics, and computational linguistics.
