Does it even work for turds who weren't raised in English-speaking countries? |

Arnold Schwarzenegger (Austrian) moved to Amerikkka when he was 21. He tried accent reduction and other speech lessons. It didn't work. Unless his accent was 10x worse before.

Date: April 28th, 2024 4:21 PM Author: Poppy business firm Even people born in the US to immigrant parents almost always have some trace of accent. It really takes 3 generations. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5522345&forum_id=2#47615820) |

Date: April 29th, 2024 4:07 AM Author: Thriller boltzmann institution This is false. Second generation immigrants speak like natives as long as they attend regular schools where only English is spoken from the moment they're old enough to attend school. They turn out fully bilingual. It is the third generations who end up sounding fully native but no longer (or not always) bilingual. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5522345&forum_id=2#47617229) |

Date: April 28th, 2024 4:28 PM Author: Swollen nudist macaca prole yes, today in fact i met this turd who had a 90% US accent and i actually asked him if he's from US. then he said he went to intl schools and was still a turd, he never lived in US at all
ditto this other turd who moved to asia in 20's and he had definitely done some turd accent reduction, still sounded funny |

Judge for yourselves. I think they still have a trace of an accent despite having spent some of their childhood years speaking English full time:

Date: April 30th, 2024 5:41 PM Author: bronze curious national security agency orchestra pit Does it matter? The thread is about ability to lose accents, these are good examples of some who were able to nearly lose it all by simply spending 2-4 years in the US as kids.
The turds who move as adults can spend 20+ years and will never lose it. |
