QotW - 19.02.11 - Why are some people better at imitating accents?
« on: 15/02/2019 10:15:32 »
Lia asked us:

"Why are some people good at imitating accents & doing impressions, while others simply aren’t? Of course you can get better with practice, but why are some people born with the skill of imitation & some not?"

What do you think?
