Old Age Presser Member 75, 7734 posts SQ 0, BP 200, DL 200400.0 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | On 'This Morning' this morning there was a woman from Plymouth who was rushed to hospital unconscious with a bad migraine, and when she woke up she spoke with a Chinese accent, and has done ever since. If this happened to you, what accent would you like to have, and which would you definitely NOT want to have? ...just to prove Wayne doesn't have a monopoly on s**t threads ... | ||

I thought Joplin choked on a sandwich? Member 616, 8404 posts SQ 180, BP 130, DL 220530.0 kgs @ 78.8kgs UnEq | Was the not also a man who had a stroke and woke up speaking french without knowing a word of it pre stroke If this is all that happened to me after a stroke I'd be quite pleased. I genuinely fear having a stroke and loosing the ability to communicate yet still have the comprehension to do so. Must be so frustrating been trapped like that On a lighter note, I'd pick Fred dibners | ||

Angry parasite and a rapist hoping to move abroad Member 2776, 152 posts | drew said:Was the not also a man who had a stroke and woke up speaking french without knowing a word of it pre stroke I've heard of the accent change but not the sudden ability to speak a foreign language. Surely that would be irrifutable proof of reincarnation? | ||

Cut him some slack, he is an american Member 311, 1751 posts | i doubt that one or two cases that are in some instances poorly documented can count as irrefutable evidence...... i would be more inclined to believe that in most cases some sort of brain injury has knocked out the language assembly centers in the brain and that that would be responsible for any accents/suddenly acquired language abilities..... | ||

Either it happened or it didn't. If it did (which I doubt) then I believe reincarnation to be a far more reasonable explanation than the brain just suddenly acquiring the ability to speak a foreign language out of the blue. I'd like to add that I don't really believe in reincarnation. It's just that I think that it's pure bulls**t about the foreign language. | ||
