Wiktionary
COMPENSATORY, adjective. That compensates, or serves as compensation
COMPENSATORY LENGTHENING, noun. (linguistics) The lengthening of a vowel sound which occurs when a following consonant is lost, an extreme form of fusion exhibited for example by many non-rhotic British dialects of English, which drop the /ɹ/ from /ɑɹt/ but compensatorily lengthen the /ɑ/, resulting in /ɑːt/ ("art").
