Reply to TIL about foreign accent syndrome. This is a very rare (~100 cases worldwide) but real medical condition where people abruptly begin speaking in a foreign accent following head trauma like a bad migraine, accident, or stroke. by veety
Are they really speaking with an accent? Or is their speech just changed due to brain injury, and we associate that change with an accent that sounds similar?
It’s hard to believe someone could just sporadically start speaking in an accent from a place they never visited before.
