This Could Be: If he is having trouble with speech it could be the early signs of a stroke or a transient ischemic attack. It would be good to seek medical attention for him right away.

Can be: Definitely, your dad should be taken to hospital right away for a brain scan. There can be other reasons too, but he needs immediate attention.
