| Apr 13, 2019 at 9:54 | comment | added | BoldBen | A possible explanation of the difference between Australian, New Zealand and American English on the one hand and Carribean, African and Indian English on the other is that the populations who developed the first group of dialects were predominently native English speakers while the populations who developed the second group were predominently native speakers of other languages who had to (in many cases were forced to) learn English as a second language. If the [æ] sound wasn't part of these people's native languages that would provide a reason for their not incorporating it. | |
