Also think it has to be an active process. My school was the snobbiest in the city (I think others have overtaken us now, thankfully) and we were hard into American music, movies, TV etc. but no one I remember got an accent
depends! some friends who went to american intnl schools picked up perfect american accents despite living elsewhere; i get told a lot my french accent is near perf and ppl are always surprised i learned it on and off in school? but agree it’s def effort related
