    The German translation of Baldur’s Gate decided for some reason that elves spoke in an east-German accent. Imagine Legolas sounding like he was from Texas.

      I know you are making fun and all, but things like this are indeed reproduced.

      Basicly it’s a process of cultural and collective copy and pasting, where media and indivulas reproduce a concept by either activly using it (or not) or passives acepting it.

      It’s a bit more complex than that, but you probably get the idea.
