Re: Foreign Accent Syndrome
**Foreign accent syndrome (FAS) is a rare and acquired speech disorder.
In many cases, it is caused by a stroke. Damage to the brain affects the rhythm and melody of speech. If you have FAS, you adopt what sounds like a foreign accent, even though you may never have traveled to that particular country.Symptoms can last for months or years.
Do you know anyone who suffers from this or suspect that they may ? **
I recently heard about this speech disorder and I am really interested in it. Have never come across anyone with it but one of the guys on my course is doing his research on this topic so I assume he will be meeting lots of them. I think the findings will be very interesting. I just wish I had come across it earlier because I would have loved to do it myself.
