How can a person completely lose their memory but still be able to speak a fluent language?

It really depends on what type of brain trauma we’re talking about. Memory is basically is basically your brain retracing it’s steps and attempting to reconstruct the situation you’re trying to recall. So if there’s memory loss, it’s not that the memory is “gone” it’s just that the brain doesn’t know how to get back to the set of sequences to “recall”. If someone is still able to speak, that just means that the pathways to recall language are unharmed. But, once again, this REALLY depends on the brain and what type of damage we’re talking about.
