I guess a lot is instilled in childhood but I think if you are around a certain way of speaking long enough then you start to pick up on it. Like me, it seems so natural to use the word ya'll. It is so weird to think everyone doesn't use that word. Up north I guess they say you guys or something of the sort. Now south Louisiana folks have their own accent. It is a cajun accent. When someone around here hears someone from New Orleans talk you know where they are from.
The accent I love the most is English people from England. I love that accent. If I hear someone somewhere with an English accent I am mesmerized. If I could have any other accent I would want an English accent.
