This is the original sentence.
"The English spoken in rural Georgia is very different from that in rural Indiana."
Question1: Can I put "spoken" in front of the second "in" like this?
"The English spoken in rural Georgia is very different from that spoken in rural Indiana."
Question2: Which would be the more common of the two?
