A women got a migraine, and her accent changed. This is foreign accent syndrome, can be cause by head trauma, a spider bite (neurotoxicity) Can feel as if their identity is stolen from there, they don"t sound the same, don"t recognize their own voice. People reacted like it was very weird, her grandson said you lied to me, that is not my nanny . People have told her to get back to her own country , she has to take it lightly. Some people are convinced they are a different person in another life, and this is why they change accents. Britain has so many dialects of english because of the time, it was around for so long. American talks the certain english that england spoke at the time english was brought over here (pronouncing r", farm) The great vowel shift around shakespeare"s time only effected britain.
