Language loss.
  1. It can happen in a variety of ways.
    1. Brain damage.
      1. Better known as aphasia
        1. Broca's aphasia.
          1. Slow, inaccurate and hesitant writing and speech.
            1. Though not in automatic speech functions.
              1. Affecting the production of subjects, verbs and objects.
            2. Wernicke's aphasia.
              1. Troubles processing linguistic input.
              2. Aphasiology.
              3. Human brain differs from most other animals.
                1. It is not equipotential. It doesn't function holistically.
                  1. It is more suceptible to injury than animals (along with the spinal cord.).
                    1. The damage could happen by
                      1. Blood loss due to a stroke.
                        1. Invasive injury. (automobile accident)
                2. Surgical procedures.
                  1. It's much more likely to 'go wrong' with adults than with childrens.
                    1. Children's brains are still in development and can tolerate surgical changes.
                      1. Adult's brains are completely developed and sensitive to changes or injuries.
                        1. Neuroplasticity is lost because localization is complete.
                    2. Brain-related disorders.
                      1. There are many, many ways in which an individual's language can deviate dignificantly.
                        1. Two main examples.
                          1. Stuttering.
                            1. Can happen due to traumatic events in childhood or by the absence of unambiguous lateralization of speech.
                            2. Autism.
                              1. It's not just a language impairment and there are several types.
                                1. Also has anti-social connotations.
                          2. Inherited disorders.
                            1. The genes which carry the human heritage for speech are countermanded by an inherited defect that is transported by the same genetic code.
                          3. Aging.
                            1. Language usually stays still even in old people.
                              1. The more you have to remember, the easier it is to forget.
                                1. Linguistic functions gradually disintegrate together just like emotion, cognition and personality.
                            2. Neurolinguistics.
                              1. Investigates how the human brain creates and processes speech and language.
                                1. It is known that in normal brains any information in either heimsphere is immediately shared with the other.
                                  1. Language is usually represented in the left hemisphere.
                                    1. Though any information is in both hemispheres, some brain functions have a specific place in the itself. (Though hey are not just in that part of the brain).
                                      1. Damage to the parallel areas in the right hemisphere does not normally affect language production or comprehension.
                                        1. It affects other types of human behavior.
                                  2. *Behavioral - Neurological points of view.
