I wonder if could use this to learn languages more effectively. This kind of changes after a trauma shows that we remember more than we think.
- posterboy 8y agoWe actively inhibit mixing the different parts of language we know. You can just as well remember actively without destroying another part. What's damaged in most examples here is production, not recollection, anyhow. It helps to talk to people who do not understand your native tongue to actively inhibit production in it.
