Lee, Hak-Moon. (2023). A Socio-historical study of vowel raising in Australian and Canadian English. The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 31(4), 137-152. This study presents a comparative analysis of Australian English (AE) and Canadian English (CE) related to Vowel Raising in a socio-historical aspect. AE and CE differ in many ways. In particular, among the characteristics of CE, Canadian Raising (CR) is relatively well known for its difference in pronunciation due to the influence of the Great Vowel Shift (GVS). However, little research has been done on whether there is a similar vowel raising in AE, and it is linguistically meaningful to identify the differences by considering the characteristics. In particular, among many differences, when pronouncing the vowel in Price when a voiceless consonant comes after a diphthong, the CR phenomenon occurs in Canadian English compared to American English or British English. Through the comparison and analysis, we investigate whether the CR phenomenon is occurring in Australia, a commonwealth country. If the differences between AE and CE, which are the mother tongues of the world Englishes, are recognized, it will be evident that students benefit a lot from them.
