I'm from Perth and personally have a couple differences in my accent. Certainly I would never say street like "shchr" but I do say "schr". Also "Dad" definitely has a short vowel for me. And strangely enough, I do have the unique "hook" vowel, but only in the word "good". For me, the vowels in "ghoul" and "goose" are distinguished. Also, as a note on "gone", I know people who say it like gorn/gawn. I'm not sure about why though. Anyways great video as always, super interesting stuff!!

It's a pretty good observation that you used Japanese "ふ (ɸɯ)" sound to explain this sound change. As a Japanese speaker I've been fascinated by the wh sound. When we say "white" in Japanese we say "ホワイト (hoɯaito)" and "whale" becomes "ホエール (hoeːɾɯ)". But when we say Wales it's "ウェールズ (weːɾɯzɯ)". And the Japanese name of the Pokémon"wailmer" is "ホエルコ (hoeɾɯko)". It's interesting we retain the wh sounds in words that are introduced before the merger. And one more thing I noticed. When Curious George says "whew" it seems like he pronounces it with the wh sound. (But since I'm not a native English speaker I'm not sure.) It sounds like "ふゅー (ɸʲɯː)" to me. So maybe some people still pronounce "whew" with the wh sound?

exclamations and stuff often have irregular sounds in them - I definitely say “whew”/“phew” and “phwoar” with a /ɸ/

I study Cherokee and it's interesting because Cherokee has both tone and pitch accent. In Oklahoma Cherokee, historical glottal stops have been phonologized as tones, and there is a pitch accent (well, technically there are two pitch accents) that is applied to words in a subordinate clause and certain verb-derived nouns

Funny thing, there's this Australian youtuber i sometimes watch with my girlfriend named Karl Jobst who mostly makes vids about speedrunning but he has like partial rhoticity, *definitely* separate from linking r which he also has. My gf watches him for the speedrunning stuff but we always end up pausing every five seconds or so because i have to say or note smth about the way he speaks xD

It must be have been dialect levelling heavily skewed towards London accents. They converged towards a London-ish sound. To this day, Australian sounds much closer to a Cockney or RP accent than any other. It seems Received Pronunciation also came about by London-skewed accent levelling within London-area upper class schools that started in the 1400s and became more common over the centuries, slowly causing there to be a separate non-regional accent of the aristocracy instead of just regional accents shared by all classes, because Cockney and RP were still extremely similar with only dipthong and a few consonant differences between them, as late as the late 1800s, suggesting that originally all classes in London spoke the same way just as within any other region, so RP started as a result of accent-levelling in boarding schools with a London bias and then spread to aristocratic families throughout the country as their children came home speaking that way. The lack of rhoticity is a huge clue that London accents dominated Australia's first wave of European settlers but you wouldn't even need it, the accents are so similar it cannot be a coincidence.

that’s a really interesting theory! I think there was an obvious southeastern skew, but I’d be cautious of saying it’s only London - we can see in 1800’s descriptions of both accents that Australian accents had a lot in common with all accents of that region at the time (a lot of that area had sounds we would consider Cockney today), but there are some features of that region that obviously didn’t make it through, like the weak vowel merger, the merger of /w/ and /v/, etc.

@@RheaDawnLanguage That's true, and a southeast skewing as opposed to specifically London might also have contributed to the mystery I am stumped by, of trilled R not showing up in early Australia or any other English speaking part of the world to my knowledge. Cockneys and RP speakers in London used a variety of Rs each but trills still haven't fully died out even today, you still hear older Londoners or posh people using trills as a theatrical flourish on key words occasionally, and I have an elderly London friend with an RP accent whose Rs in casual conversation are still taps depending on position in the word, without thinking about it. It doesn't make sense to me unless trills for some reason phased out hundreds of years earlier everywhere outside of London and Scotland. Then, if Londoners were indeed just a reasonable minority of the emigrants and if they were the only south easterners still trilling, accent levelling alone could weed out the trills.

honestly practically speaking there isn’t much utility for an outsider to learn any language other than the ones with hundreds or thousands of speakers, like Arrernte and that, as a translator. Besides that the only people who benefit from learning an indigenous language are the actual members of the community who might have lost it. I think overall, especially if ur in law, it’s not so important to study individual languages languages as it is to understand the social problems surrounding them
