People tend to follow accents and speech patterns they’re exposed to. Some are more prone to this than others. If I am talking to someone who has a different accent than mine, or uses different slang, I often can’t help imitating them. I don’t do it on purpose, and it’s embarassing when I catch myself doing it (or when someone else has to point it out to me, like the British guy who thought I was English too.)
