Abstract

This paper explores phonetic variation in Australian English, focusing on socio-linguistic influences such as age, gender, and socio-economic status. The research employs acoustic analysis to examine vowel shifts and consonant variations across different Australian regions. The findings highlight the dynamic nature of phonetic change and its implications for communication and identity within Australia.
