Accent mimicry is the practice of temporarily takin on a similar accent as the person one is talking to. This can be intentional or unintentional. Accent mimicry can be for several reasons. This list is not exhaustive:
- masking
- trying to fit in
- a form of echolia
- because one finds the accent enjoyable to use
