Short case report: 'Speaking in tongues'--foreign accent syndrome.

Foreign accent syndrome is a rare dysprosody in which pronunciation of a patient's speech is perceived by same-language listeners as sounding foreign. Sixty cases have been described between 1941 and 2009. It is commonly associated with an acquired brain injury (vascular insult/head injury), but also with psychogenic illness and has been described in two cases as a developmental problem.
