I am actually guilty of this. My dad as well. We are sponges of life and just take on what's happening. My gf is Lakota and my dad has participated in MANY Sundances and sweat ceremonies to the point he has been an honorary Lakota. We both start drawing out our sentences when around natives. My gf also sounds midwest English, until she is around other natives.

I had some Australian friends online and they called me out because I got drunk and started mimicking their accent..

Edit: why is that bad? We adapt to the situation we are apart of to fit in and not be different. I feel like it's to conform to be apart of a culture, like someone trying out a language to fit in...jeesh
