A member asked:
Can you explain if it's possible that someone forgets his/her mother language due to brain damage ?

Brain damage: If the brain damage is serious enough the answer is yes. It is not that the person "forgets" the language it is the loss of the brain function that allows one to process language.

Yes, it can: Both primary and secondary language centers in the dominate hemisphere of the brain are located in different areas, so that brain injury can affect one or both areas.
