[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She’s from Queen’s. How else is she “supposed” to speak? If her parents are immigrants she learned English from her friends! This is so dumb and frankly racist against Asians. [/quote]

It's also racist to assume her immigrant parents were incapable of influencing how she speaks English.[/quote]

People generally pick up the accent/coloquialisms of the people they are surrounded by, PP. I'm going to tell you something that will BLOW YOUR MIND. My Indian-born sister was raised in the Midwest and married a German man of German and Ghanaian descent. They live in England. Their 1/2 Indian, 1/4 German, 1/2 Ghanian child HAS A BRITISH ACCENT.

WHAT ACCENT EXACTLY DO YOU WANT MY NIECES TO BE SPEAKING IN??????[/quote]

But that's not Awkwafina's situation.  She only speaks that way in certain situations, and it is very exaggerated.  [/quote]
DP.. her situation is that she was surrounded by people who spoke that way, and she probaby grew up speaking that way.

I grew up speaking that way, but I can speak without that accent, too.  [/quote]
