I was told my great aunt had this after a stroke. She was italian, and after she woke up, spoke with a heavy german/polish accent for a few months. Granted, we live in northern Italy, so she probably HAD met someone that talked like that at some point.

Might have just been slurred speech, but the way it was described to me matches this.

Yes, iirc she did speech therapy and that helped her return almost to normal
