French accent syndrome
Once in a great while people that have had a traumatic injury to the brain, thank God recover, however, with one small quirk. They develop a foreign accent. There are many parts of the brain which are involved in speech. It is not merely a matter of alterations of the part of the brain which control the muscles that produce sounds, something else happens. Some cases have been an English country side boy who developed a posh accent, an American who developed a British Yorkshire accent and a Norwegian lady that developed a German accent. But perhaps one of the most common is English speakers who develop a French accent. In fact it is also referred to the French accent syndrome.
