It's so interesting how something as personal as language can shape not only our inner sense of self but also the way others perceive and interact with us.

It’s like language becomes this unintentional mirror, reflecting not just our identity, but also triggering assumptions and judgments from those around us.

It makes me wonder, how much of that judgment is based on real understanding versus preconceived stereotypes about different accents or dialects?

Thanks for sharing!
