Ahh, my bad. I am remembering from old American text books from my college days that utilized Aboriginals and Aborigine, both of which i am discovering are incorrect, outdated, and offensive.
My college days were a long time ago and I don’t get many opportunities to speak about aboriginal people, so I’m not surprised I’m behind the times. Thanks for the update!
Hey just a language note, Aboriginal is not a noun, we don’t say “aboriginals”. We say “Aboriginal people”.

No worries, mate. Progress comes from teaching one person one thing at a time!
