• Southern Hemisphere <strong>English</strong>es have a raised<br />
“short front” series of vowels relative to RP.<br />
“hid”, “head”, had”<br />
• In NZE the raising progression has continued<br />
whereas in AusE a reversal of the progression<br />
has begun.<br />
• Research shows that /æ/ has continued to lower<br />
over the past 40 years and we are now<br />
beginning to see changes to surrounding<br />
vowels.
