Relating to or characteristic of Australia or Australasian regions, particularly in linguistic, anthropological, or geographic contexts.
From Austral plus the suffix -ic (meaning 'of or pertaining to'), creating an adjective. A less common variant of 'Australian.'
Australic is linguistically interesting because it competes with Australian for the same meaning—language constantly generates alternative forms that slowly disappear or persist based on usage. Australic survives mainly in specialized anthropology and linguistics writing.
