Not that I deliberately give any importance to it, but my ear always notices extraordinary sounds in conversations. Especially accents. It seems that through that one "strangely" pronounced word I hear their mother, friends, teachers. As if they unwillingly left an opened the door to their life.

I do not like remainders of the dialect in my speech. As if I guard all that are dear to me from the curious eyes with the sound of the proper words.
