I wonder if it's a necessary part of the language or just an exaggerated accent.

Nah, it's pretty necessary.

I'd never be able to communicate in the language then.

I never learned to whistle either.

Only if you don't want to appear to be a grrrrringo.  Hehe I studied Spanish for three years, many decades ago. When I worked as a mechanic, one of the guys was from Peru. I got to refresh my Spanish by talking to him. He went back to Peru not long after I graduated from uni...in '83. Just practice it, you'll get it down.  Think

Alien vs Predator is not a movie about illegal immigrants suing the Catholic church.

That Mark Twain lived in San Francisco.

I figured since his most famous book was about the south that that was where he lived.
