Great question and all, but "aborigine" is a dated term and considered offensive by many of us. Aboriginal Australian works just fine.

please use a capital letter and it is Aboriginal Australian not Aborigine.

Indigenous Australians, or Aboriginal. Also, more accurate to say "Dreaming" as Dreamtime implies it's in the past and other and done with, whereas Aboriginal spirituality actually holds that it is an ongoing reality.

Beverley Australia, It is dependant on the individuals preference. Some people don't mind the term Aboriginal and others do. It is up to the individual and we all need to respect whichever term they prefer. It's not up to non-Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander Peoples to make that decision for them, no matter who we know or are related to. It's about education. Especially in these times.
