Accents are a part of life. We all have one, even though a lot of the time people from the US like to forget that there is such a thing as an American accent. It's embarrassing but a lot of us consider the way we speak to be neutral and anything else is considered a twang or whatever. It's probably because a lot of mainstream music is usually sung with an American accent (If it's in English of course), or because of the many famous American TV shows.

Surprisingly, the generic 'American Accent' is not on this Reddit list, but if you have something else, yours might be.

When you spend too much time with people a lot starts to happen. You can predict their moods, memorize their sleep schedule, and of course, you develop some kind of a dialect that only becomes more and more abstract with time. Made-up words can definitely solidify a relationship. So, who do we spend the most time with growing up? Yep, our families. And some 'famiolects' just happen to go much farther than others.
