someone born and raised in mexico city who moves to uru uru and lives in bolivia for 30 years will start to sound bolivian at some point unless they deliberately avoid interacting with their neighbors. their kids will go to bolivian school and learn bolivian spanish instead of mexican spanish. the difference between this person i made up and my old indian classmate's kids who probably won't learn hindi is that those kids also won't learn any lakota or whatever either.
