Khajiiti speech as a non-Khajiit?

I love the way the Khajiit talk (e.g. "Please indulge this one for asking..."), and my Imperial main speaks like one through the Khajiit Speak addon. It's great! How can I justify this through a lore-friendly explanation? Grew up in Southern Elsweyr? Khajiit foster parents? Dissociative Identity Disorder? Any ideas welcome.

    Though this is the opposite of what you're asking, Zhasim is a khajiit who speaks like an orc, because he was raised with orcs. I strongly recommend playing through the Bonerock Cavern in Wrothgar (if you have the DLC), as it really ties together themes of ancestry, family history, and belonging in Tamriel.

    So the reverse would easily be possible. Why he was raised with Khajiit or in Elsweyr, or otherwise speaks with a Ta'agra accent, is up to you.

    Sheogorath's work, for sure.

    Well this one she has a litter sister, Rosie, who is an orc.

    We are travelling folk and if we see a green toothy kitten at the side of the road we do not leave it there no.

    You do not need the ears and the tail and the whiskers to be Khajiit. If the moons they smile on you then welcome to the family :)

    Think one of the khajiit in IC sewers states it's an accent. Don't see why someone else couldn't adopt it, but you would have to be really close to khajiit as even humans and elves born there don't have an accent.

    I try not to use it but it can still slip in. Around other khajiit this one will use it freely yes?
    That one khajiit obsessed with werewolf behemoth and vampire lord. Lady Thorn is bae, dont @ me.
    Werewolf behemoth=vampire lord>blood scion>werewolf>vampire.
