[How is our accent affected by our birthplace?]
I think that the tradition depends on the birthplace.
People have their own traditions according to the place, and accents or some special words are one of the traditions.
The accent is affected for a long time in our life.
Children's accents may change depending on where they live.
However, It is difficult to change the accent after being an adult.
My speech and accent also changed after I moved to a different area in high school.
I have been living in a southern place for four years, but my accent is not changed, and it is different from the traditional accent in this area.
We usually learn language and pronunciation from our parents.
So, even if the parents don't live in their birthplace anymore, children can learn their accents naturally.
Sometimes we can recognize someone's birthplace after we talk together due to their special accent.
It is very interesting, but sometimes it creates prejudice.
Hello, Nicole!
I hope you arrived home safe. Your response highlights well how accents develop and how they reflect a persons background. The point about accents potentially leading to prejudice is a good observation.
