We use language to express our identity. Our way of speaking varies and changes to reflect who we are and who we want to be.
Most definitely, Yes. So long as we fence the definition of 'background' to a linguistic premise and do not extend it to profession, character, academic ranking, intellect etc. of a person.
While the statement is very relevant geographically in the global sense, a typical case study could be undertaken in the Indian context. India is a vast country with many states. More or less each state has its own mother tongue. Each mother tongue exemplifies the manner in which English is pronounced across the country in terms of tenor, delivery speed, grammar and movements - tongue, lip, teeth, nasal air. I take English as an example since it kind of binds people of diverse language backgrounds together from the viewpoint of communication. Unity in diversity (sic). Cited are some examples:
road-rod,Keralite /measure-mayyer,Punjabi /station-tation,North /wet-wait,Marathi /vet-bhet,Bengali /snack-snake, Gujarati /H-hetch, Tamilian. These are only a few examples. The lingua franca could vary every 100 km!
Not deriding any language, this is just highlighting how the gravitational pull of the mother tongue on the English dialect gives way to a person's background.
