Is it normal to develop an accent foreign to the country you live in?

    I knew a Canadian once who had a French accent. Even worse, they actually spoke French. Damn craziest thing I've ever heard of since that Brazilian guy who can speak Portuguese.

        Nothing, to be honest. Curious about what you thought I was implying, though.

        You tend to pick up what you are around or exposed to. I lived in the ghetto at one point and started talking like a hood rat. I really hated it.

      You do realise that many Canadians speak French as their first language, don't you? Also, Portuguese is Brazil's official language.
