History
The Queensland Speech Study was funded by a grant from the Australian Research Council. Its aims were to distinguish and describe all the varieties of English spoken in Queensland (at the time of the study in the 1960s). Professor K.G.

Elwyn Flint was involved in the obtaining the audio recordings of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island communities and the English spoken in these communities. Twenty nine communities were canvassed.
