[quote=Anonymous]It's common for kids to adopt speech patterns/phrases/mannerisms from their friends, especially when they are around their friends. I have an Indian friend who speaks with a flawless American accent in the states (she went to college here) but at home adopts her normal accent. On the other hand, I have a midwestern friend who adopts a slight Indian accent when with her in-laws (they all lived together for some time). I have never seen that before, but she is clearly not mocking and I think it's actually subconscious! Language is so interesting.[/quote]
