Simply going to Mecca isn’t the Hajj. There are a whole bunch of rituals Muslims have to do while in Mecca and its surrounding areas.

When the pilgrim is about 6 miles (10 km) from Mecca, he or she enters the state of holiness and purity known as ihram and dons the ihram garments; for men they consist of two white seamless sheets that are wrapped around the body, while women may wear sewn clothes. The pilgrims cut neither their hair nor their nails until the pilgrimage rite is over. They enter Mecca and walk seven times around the sacred shrine called the Kaaba, in the Great Mosque; if possible, kiss or touch the Black Stone (al-Ḥajar al-Aswad) in the Kaaba; pray twice in the direction of the Maqām Ibrāhīm and the Kaaba; and run seven times between the minor prominences of Mount Ṣafā and Mount Marwah. On the 7th day of Dhū al-Ḥijjah the pilgrims are reminded of their duties. At the second stage of the ritual, which takes place between the 8th and the 12th days of the month, the pilgrim visits the holy places outside Mecca—Jabal al-Raḥmah, Muzdalifah, and Minā—and sacrifices an animal in commemoration of Abraham’s sacrifice. Male pilgrims’ heads are then usually shaved, and female pilgrims remove a lock of hair. After the rajm ritual at Minā, in which pilgrims throw seven stones at three walls (formerly pillars, symbolizing the Devil) on three successive days, the pilgrim returns to Mecca to perform the farewell ṭawāf, or circumambulation, of the Kaaba before leaving the city.

Phrasal verbs are the bane of english language learners. It’s one of the weird things that natives speakers don’t notice until they are mentioned by someone learning english or they become an english major.

Wipe out, mull over, look up to. These are just some of the phrasal verbs you want to think over.

Not really. You acquire the accent of your parents and those you grow up around. If his parents have a strong chilean accent he can probably at least emulate one since he’s heard it a lot.

Hell he might code switch while he speaks with his parent. Personally I slip into a downeast mainer accent when i speak with family but normally my accent is a flat American accent.

I bet it was the Tenth Doctor. He always seemed a bit off his rocker to me.
