The American, British, and Australian English accents have distinct pronunciation, intonation, and vocabulary differences. American English has a rhotic accent, while British English is non-rhotic. Australian English has a mix of both. Vocabulary and slang also vary between the three accents.

American English tends to be rhotic with distinct vowel sounds, while British English often drops "r" and has unique consonant pronunciations. Australian English shares non-rhotic features with British English but has its own vowel shifts and intonation patterns.
