[@SentaiYamaneko]

Foreign accent syndrome is usually related to some form of brain damage. Most commonly after a stroke, but also from head trauma, brain lesions, or even migraines. Facial surgery can be a potential cause. It's also more common in women for some reason. One of the earliest reported examples of this syndrome was a Norwegian woman who was hit by shrapnel during WWII and came out of it speaking with a German accent (which, considering the time, left her ostracized). And it's so rare (as few as 80 people worldwide have it), we don't really have a proper treatment for it yet, with speech therapy really being the only option. At the very least, it's usually temporary. When questioning people who had this condition about how long it lasted, they reported a range of 2 months to 18 years, with a mean length of about 3 years.

Dena Barton Nah, not being able to talk would be far more devastating. You can recognize your voice, because it's coming out of your mouth. It wouldn't be hard to adjust to it. Not being able to talk is far worse, and very related. If you can't talk, you would need a board or something to communicate with. You can't get someone's attention by talking to them anymore. You can't cry for help if you need it. Talking would take more time and energy. Laughing would be hard. If you just can't speak because your mouth wont be able to create the right gestures to talk, then it's pretty much the same.

It's like I couldn't help it, it just came out so naturally even though I was unable to do that before. It only lasted for a few hours after the surgery though. It seemed weird but I didn't think much of it back then. I assumed that it was the drugs that somehow enhanced some part of my brain or something like that.

[@jocyherrera4021]

YangSing1 true but you're also using a couple of the most known states to compare. Like you probably can't tell the difference between someone from Rhode Island to someone from Virginia.

[@YangSing1]

Jocy Herrera Who knows. But I was giving a reasonable explanation to how different each British accent is from each other. In each major city in England the accent is very different, the accent is only similar to another if it's another town or city in the same region as whatever city.

[@ihdiinnotime]

This is fascinating to me, essentially we all could have "accents" stored in our brains that can be triggered via different scenarios, this woman never learned to speak in a english accent, it was already imprinted in her brain somewhere, do we all have ALL accents imprinted that unlock depending on genes & birth location? I start going down a rabbit hole regarding simulations. Crazy stuff.

[@andrewfutterman3346]

I'm American (from California) and my ex-girlfriend, whom I was with for two years, was from a small town in West Yorkshire, England. I got used to hearing her speak, since we chatted daily, and I feel it's definitely possible that somewhere in my brain the accent is imprinted. However, I sustained a TBI about five years ago and all I got was a seizure disorder. I would SO gladly trade it for an English accent.

[@michaelreid322]

Well, since she's not actually British, I wouldn't expect her to have an accurate British accent. Just a guess, it came from British movies or shows she's watched, and her neurological twist is relying on those memories. That's probably how she thinks a British accent sounds.

[@znyznyzny]

I've heard chavs from London sound like her. Maybe it's because she's not using the slang so it's a bit off.

For the past year I have had some come up and say I sound Irish... I have always talked like this, and most likely this happened as a result of my mother's pregnancy issues and possibly having a stoke. Who knows though. I am 22 years old and this is the first time I have ever heard of this actually having a name as a diagnosis.
