Many Aboriginal people in Australia prefer to be referred to as "Aboriginal" or "Torres Strait Islander," depending on their specific heritage. Some individuals also identify with their specific nation or community, such as Yolŋu, Noongar, or Arrernte. It's important to respect individual preferences, as terminology can vary widely among different groups and individuals. Engaging in open dialogue and asking people how they wish to be identified is typically the best approach.
