She could relearn a different accent. Just the stroke affected that portion of her brain for the normal accent.
It's basically dead cells. It took a while for her to adjust. At some point in her life she likely attempted to imitate a Italian. It was the closest for her brain.
Like I could easily imitate a German or Mexican. I grew up around both.

@DeWayfarer She insisted that wasn’t the case.

@bijouxbroussard I could probably do Romanian and Czech as well. I don't understand a word in either. Add Italian on that as well I was friends with plenty of them. Somewhere at some time you come across everything.

@bijouxbroussard no. Your brain stores everything language is the most important.
When you dream it's nothing but sorting everything into place. There is a section for everything in your brain.
It can often be accessed through hypnosis. Yet those cells that died are gone now.
Even through hypnosis it's gone.

@DeWayfarer A stroke isn’t the same thing as a dream.

@bijouxbroussard My father had to relearn how to even walk and feed himself when he was hit over the head with a baseball bat.
It's the same thing as a stroke!

@DeWayfarer That’s not a dream, it’s a brain injury, which is comparable to a stroke.

@bijouxbroussard but your memories are sorted in dreams. That's a fact. If that part of your brain is dead your dream can't sort anything there. It's dead

@bijouxbroussard AI generated...
Dreams play a role in sorting and consolidating memories, helping to rearrange and process experiences from our waking life. This process is essential for memory formation and emotional regulation.

@DeWayfarer I’m not a neurologist so I won’t argue that point. But you initially compared the woman’s experience to your being able to imitate different accents. That would be deliberate on your part and the woman insisted she’s never done that. So it’s not the same thing.

@DeWayfarer Irrelevant, because this wasn’t a dream. The woman suffered a stroke.

@bijouxbroussard your brain creates pathways to the nearest areas. Italian just happened to be the closest. Otherwise she would have to relearn how to even speak.
Like my father had to learn to even walk.

@DeWayfarer Why would Italian be nearest in her brain ? She’s never spoken Italian or been to Italy; she has no Italian friends or family members. This doesn’t clear anything up for me.

@bijouxbroussard she just doesn't remember.
Try to remember every detail that went on in your life. It's impossible without help of hypnosis.

@DeWayfarer I think you’re reaching. Let it go.

@bijouxbroussard I had to study some of this before.
I once was a computer programmer. And I know AI. It's similar but not the same.
The brain uses neural nets the same way as AI. When I say a pathway it's the same thing in the brain.
