What is aphasia? Aphasia is a language disorder caused by damage in a specific area of the brain that controls language expression and comprehension. Aphasia leaves a person unable to communicate effectively with others.
The three kinds of aphasia are Broca's aphasia, Wernicke's aphasia, and global aphasia. All three interfere with your ability to speak and/or understand language.
Some people may refer to aphasia as dysphasia. Aphasia is the medical term for full loss of language, while dysphasia stands for partial loss of language.
Damage to the temporal lobe of the brain may result in Wernicke's aphasia (see figure), the most common type of fluent aphasia. People with Wernicke's aphasia may speak in long, complete sentences that have no meaning, adding unnecessary words and even creating made-up words.
The most common types of aphasia are: Broca's aphasia. Wernicke's aphasia. Anomic aphasia....Primary progressive aphasia (PPA)Read.Write.Speak.Understand what other people are saying.
Expressive aphasia is when you know what you want to say, but you have trouble saying or writing your thoughts. Receptive aphasia affects your ability to read and understand speech. You can hear what people say or see words on a page, but you have trouble making sense of what they mean.
Both conditions can make communication difficult. The difference between the two is that dysarthria is a speech impairment while aphasia is a language impairment. Aphasia is a language disorder, most commonly due to a stroke or other brain injury.
