Reading articles in specific accents
-
I have been doing this for a long time now, and I cannot tell you how many programming articles I have read. I have also worked with really good programmers from all over the world, so I have a good feel for speech patterns from different parts of the world. Lately, I have found myself reading articles in the voice and accent that I assume the author to have. This might be a defensive technique I have developed to maintain the technical integrity of an article in the face of (sometimes badly) broken English.

I had a natural tendency to mimic the accent of someone I was talking to, face to face. It began when I started traveling lots, and meeting people with significantly different accents. Fortunately, as I repeatedly caught myself doing it, and became more aware of it, I was able to suppress it.

I have done the same with this post but no it is still incomprehensible.
