APHASIA
Definition of Aphasia
There are three forms of aphasia. The first, Broca's aphasia , involves damage to the front part of the left hemisphere of the brain. This results in labored, stilted speech in which the speaker drops words and can only speak in short sentences. The second form, Wernicke's aphasia , is a result of damage to the rear part of the left hemisphere of the brain. Wernicke's aphasia results in speech that uses the wrong words, nonsense words and the like. People with Wernicke's aphasia can speak as if fluently (no stopping, no labor), but the words often come out strange. People with this aphasia also have difficulty understanding the speech of others. The third form of aphasia is global aphasia , which is damage to the entire hemisphere, and results in a combination of Broca's and Wernicke's forms of aphasia. It results in severe limitations of speech and a general inability to comprehend the language of others.
Causes of Aphasia
As mentioned above, aphasias are caused by damage to the left side of the brain. This is most usually the result of some kind of trauma (say, an axe to the head), but can also be produced by internal lesions (from aneurysms breaking or other hemhorrages) and brain tumors.
Adaptation
Now, and even more likely in the future, it is possible to slowly regain some amount of speech capability. The brain is remarkably capable of using other parts of the brain for tasks normally reserved for other areas of the brain. This is most prevalent in children with brain damage, but adults have had some success as well.

This document is also provided in a downloadable form This web site and the development of these guidelines is an AccessAbility Grants Initiative of the Department of the Communications, Information Technology and the Arts. In Australia and many other developed countries, initiatives are being made to ensure access to online resources for those members of the community who are disadvantaged. The term digital divide is increasingly being used to describe the effect of inequitable access to the information economy. Since 1998, the Commonwealth Government has funded nearly $3.0 million in grants to ensure that people with disabilities have adequate access to online information and communication services. This funding supports innovative projects that develop new products, new services or new ways of using current products or services, to improve access by people with disabilities.

Aphasia is a language disorder caused by damage in a specific area of the brain that controls language expression and comprehension, and leaves a person unable to communicate effectively with others. Approximately one million people in the United States have aphasia, with about 80,000 cases diagnosed each year. Both genders are affected equally, and most people with aphasia are in middle to old age. What are the different types of aphasia? There are many types of aphasia, which are usually diagnosed by which area of the language-dominant side of the brain is affected, and the extent of the damage. People with Broca's aphasia , for example, have damage to the front portion of the language-dominant side of the brain. They may eliminate the articles and and the from their language, and speak in short, but meaningful, sentences. They usually can understand some speech of others. Those with Wernike's aphasia have damage to the back portion of the language-dominant side of the brain. They may speak in long confusing sentences, add unnecessary words, or create new words. They usually have difficulty understanding the speech of others.

http://www.msu.edu/user/hinckley/experience.html
THE EXPERIENCE OF LIVING WITH CHRONIC APHASIA Aphasia is the breakdown of understanding, speaking, reading and writing language due to a brain injury. I do not have aphasia. But I have had the privilege of knowing many people with aphasia, who inspire me with their strength of spirit and dignity. Below I have listed a few of my favorite quotes that relate to many of the accomplishments of people with aphasia. There is also a list of publications written by individuals who have experienced living with aphasia themselves, and have achieved the doubly challenging task, for them, of talking about it. Finally, there are a couple of books written by experts in the field that I find I often recommend to individuals living with aphasia. I welcome additions to any of these lists - they are not yet comprehensive. Please email me with your suggestions. Favorite Quotes About Living with Aphasia "Life immediately after the stroke was simply incomprehensible, now it is full of surprises, excitement, and satisfaction." -Doug Ritchie, 1966, Stroke: A diary of recovery "We should not fear death. It is the possibility of a life unlived that is tragic." -Leo Buscaglia

Welcome to "Living in Aphasia", a Flash-based web work by Lucy Francis .
Please click on the above image to enter.
"Living in Aphasia" is intended as an impressionistic collage depicting the recent fictional history of a small nation. The conflicts caused by colonial imperialism are the fuel for this manufactured history. The sometimes amusing content allegorises and reflects our current world experience. This ironic work also draws parallels between the illness aphasia and the natural difficulty in facing a foreign culture. (Aphasia is a condition where the ability to understand or use language is severely impaired, in some cases to the point where even gestures are incomprehensible.) The idea of cultural confusion as illness is underscored with glimpses of medical information about this condition being almost subliminally revealed.

Although these animals can communicate, do they have LANGUAGE Some scientists have argued that language is what sets humans apart from all other animals. Other researchers wonder if humans are really the only species with language . Certainly other animals communicate ...bees have the ability to communicate with other bees using their special "dance." However, human language is more than just communication. Humans use symbols that have meaning. It is possible that apes have the ability to learn and communicate with language . However, not all scientists believe that apes have "real" language. Apes cannot talk because they do not have the necessary anatomy in their mouths and throats to speak. However, they apparently can learn to use symbols to communicate.

Some words from the foundry... A meeting of Byzantine and Art Deco forms, Aphasia began as a series of handwritten captions to accompany drawings in the early 1990s. The drawings were abandoned to allow the lettering to become the real composition. Playfully set in blocks of verse with each line shaped through free-association, the only visual rule was that all the lines of capitals be of equal length. The challenge of the game required extensive abbreviations, ligatures, small caps, and superiors. With the advent of Letraset Try looking at more fonts like this

97. Broca's Aphasia
Broca aphasia aphasia is defined by Websters Dictionary as a loss or impairmentof the power to use or comprehend words usually resulting from brain damage. .
http://www.sci.uidaho.edu/med532/Broca.htm
Med.Sci 532 Structure-Function Broca Aphasia Aphasia is defined by Websters Dictionary as a "loss or impairment of the power to use or comprehend words usually resulting from brain damage." In most people the Broca's area is in the lower part of the left frontal lobe. It is one of the main language areas in the cerebral cortex because it controls the motor aspects of speech. Persons with a Broca aphasia can usually understand what words mean, but have trouble performing the motor or output aspects of speech. Thus, other names for this disorder are 'expressive' and 'motor' aphasia. Depending on the severity of the lesion to Broca's area, the symptoms can range from the mildest type (cortical dysarthria) with intact comprehension and the ability to communicate through writing to a complete loss of speaking out loud.
