I've always wondered why Rarity has a different accent from her parents and Sweetie Belle?

@otakubrony69 a mystery for all time
-
@otakubrony69 Because you don't inherit accents from parents. You can have them heavily influence it, but in reality Rarity could have developed her speech from anywhere she spent a moderate amount of time at.
-
@otakubrony69 Rarity's accent is what is called Mid-Atlantic. It doesn't occur naturally anywhere. You have to train yourself to speak in it.

@flamingpandaomg kind of like how I sound british in person
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Kind of like how I now sound like a hick if I'm not consciously thinking about it because everybody around me has a ridiculous southern accent.
-
@thelastgherkin I live in the mid atlantic and I don't know anyone who speaks like Rarity
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline Isn't mid-atlanti just a fake accent brits use to not alienate Americans?
-
@lilytheamazingfaintingpony Oh man, old school.
-
@lilytheamazingfaintingpony I don't think so, but I dunno
-
@prettypurpleprincesspublicprincesstimeline If you look closely, that's exactly what I said. It has nothing to do with the Mid-Atlantic states, but rather refers to a middleground between the American and British accents - i.e. the middle of the Atlantic ocean.
