1The three key symptoms of Broca's aphasia are [blank_start]agrammatism[blank_end], [blank_start]anomia[blank_end] and [blank_start]articulation difficulties[blank_end].
- Aagrammatism
- Banomia
- Carticulation difficulties
2[blank_start]Broca's aphasia[blank_end] is characterised by slow, nonfluent and laborious speech, whereas [blank_start]Wernicke's aphasia[blank_end] is characterised by fluent but meaningless speech and little speech comprehension.
- ABroca's aphasia
- BWernicke's aphasia
3The [blank_start]Wernicke's[blank_end] area is primarily responsible for recognising words, whereas the [blank_start]posterior language[blank_end] area is primarily responsible for comprehending the meaning of words and formulating ideas for one's own speech.
- AWernicke's
- Bposterior language
4Damage to the [blank_start]Wernicke's[blank_end] area that spares the posterior language area produces pure word deafness.
- AWernicke's
5Damage to the [blank_start]posterior language[blank_end] area that spares the [blank_start]Wernicke's[blank_end] area produces transcortical sensory aphasia.
- Aposterior language
- BWernicke's
6Symptoms noted in Broca's aphasia and Wernicke's aphasia
1. Broca's aphasia: difficulties with speech [blank_start]production[blank_end] but not with speech [blank_start]comprehension[blank_end].
- [blank_start]Agrammatism[blank_end]: difficulties in grammatical construction. Function words and grammatical markers are usually missing in their speech.
- [blank_start]Anomia[blank_end] means having difficulties with finding words eg. long pauses between words or lots of 'uh' in their speech.
- [blank_start]Articulation[blank_end] difficulties - mispronunciation of words and incorrect sequence of sounds.
- Difficulties with understanding the [blank_start]grammatical structure[blank_end] of a sentence, which to some extent compromise their speech comprehension.
2. Wernicke's aphasia: fluent but [blank_start]meaningless[blank_end] speech and little speech [blank_start]comprehension[blank_end].
- Can produce [blank_start]fluent[blank_end] speech without apparent effort, and their speech appears to be [blank_start]grammatical[blank_end] ie. an absence of speech production deficits.
- Speech is essentially a meaningless [blank_start]jumble of words[blank_end], they cannot formulate [blank_start]ideas[blank_end] for their own speech.
- Cannot follow [blank_start]verbal[blank_end] instructions, they cannot [blank_start]comprehend[blank_end] speech.
- Cannot [blank_start]repeat[blank_end] words or sentences, they cannot [blank_start]recognise[blank_end] the sounds that constitute words.- Aproduction
