Australian voices really aren't what they used to be. Linguists and ABC presenters weigh in on the changes to Aussie voices and the death of the ABC accent.
Yeah we need to resolve that first. Aunts are cool and take you to a theme park on summer break, whereas aunts don’t let you sit on the good furniture and the only candy they have are those lozenges with the wrapper that looks like a strawberry
As a General American speaker, all three of those are the same vowel for me, but I don’t think that’s true in a lot of the world (and also not in at least part of the US).

For me it’s “AHnt” for Aunt, “frANce” for France, and “pANts” for pants.
I think we need to address your use of the word candy first. It’s lollies m8, fite me
I’m American who wandered in, sorry
I’ll give you a pass just this once cobber, just don’t shoot 🔫
