[quote=Anonymous]Some people tend to adopt the accent of where they live more than others. I met a woman from Pennsylvania living in Richmond, VA, and she had an "Old Richmond" accent even though we didn't hang out with old wealthy types. Then she moved to England and came back with an English accent. I just don't think my tongue takes on new accents very easily. I can't even do a good approximation of the NJ accent I grew up with now that it's melded into some nondescript newscaster accent. I think people who are good at learning new languages and/or are musical are generally better at accents. And it may not be a conscious choice but a very subconscious choice to assimilate. Look up Eric Singer accents/dialects on YouTube for some interesting lessons on dialects. [/quote]
