Aphasia

What happens when we lose our ability to use language? What difficulties do we run into when studying language loss? In this week's episode, we look at aphasia, and particularly Broca's aphasia: what symptoms occur, why it's hard to make sweeping generalizations about what to expect, and what aphasia can tell us about how language works.
This is Topic #24!
This week's tag language: Brazilian Portuguese!

    Anybody who is interested in recovery from aphasia, you should find out more about speech-language pathology. Speech-language pathologists help people with language disorders, and are key to helping people with aphasia recover. See more at www.asha.org!

    Hello! Thank you so much for this episode (I was really expecting it) and for all the great content you provide us all with. As a high school student who is very enthusiastic about languages and linguistics, this is definitely one of the best resources I've come across. One little thing: the link for the extra materials isn't working. Hope you can fix that soon!

    ***** Oh no! I'm sorry about that. I'll get that sorted out by this evening, once the new episode is together, and then I'll leave you another message here, so you'll know and be able to get over to it. Thanks for your kind words and for your patience! I hope you'll find them worth the wait. ^_^

    Thank you. I have aphasia and don’t want to talk. It’s so hard to get my feeling out. My words don’t come out. It’s lonely.

    I just gave a presentation on neurodiversity and one of the sections was about how there is no normal brain. I like the way you explain it!

    Diana Kennedy Thanks! Glad you liked it. It's really true! We just gloss by it and point at pictures of the brain, but it's all idealized. When you really want to get down to studying neurolinguistics, though, you always have to account for the individual variation, or you'll get things wrong.

    You explained everything so well! It would also help second language learners like me if there's an english subtitle. :)

    Thanks! And there should be English subtitles on it - we have them on all our episodes. Did it not work for you? From my end, it looks like it's turned on okay!

    So, does this mean that if s student is diagnosed with an expressive language problem, separate from a receptive language problem, is it Broca's area as well? Or again, is this question not really linguistics?

    Diana Kennedy Hmmm. If we want to try to associate a specific brain region to the behavior, the area that'd be more likely to be implicated would be Broca's Area. But that's a broad statement; some problems, like difficulties with lexical retrieval, would be more likely associated with Wernicke's Area. But as a broad guideline, yeah, I'd agree with your statement there. Thanks for the question!

    How would this effect written language?

    It can! There are many reasons a person's written language may be affected, including fine-motor control, or language. That's why a thorough evaluation is crucial to getting the right kind of treatment.

    Aphasia is found in Houston, the biggest city in the American state Texas, and Johnstone, in the south west of Scotland.

    So grammar and vocabulary are handled by different parts of the brain? Interesting.

    I guess that if you're experiencing aphasia, a part of your brain is Broken.
