There's two possibilities I've been thinking of. One, is that, as an entirely new character, during his time with the SAS in World War II, Zero had something to do with the bombing of Skull Face's village. His past is the one thing that he seems to care about, so only something involving his past could drive him to exact such revenge. When he speaks about having forgotten his past, I think he means that, as he's gotten older he's forgotten more and more of it except for the burning down of the factory. Without anyone else to speak to, and as a young child, it's no surprise that he would also forget much of his own language. Sure, he could speak it, but apparently his accent was horrible. Of course, this is due to the voice actor James Horan not being Hungarian, but it seems that it can be accounted for nonetheless by the character's history.
