@tyronegaa aphasia patients are all different, depending on the brain damage. Aphasia means, you cant use language. But as you can see, most patients can still use some language to speak, so i think they still can write down things, but they'll have a very hard time, just like when they're speaking.
i have a question. Wouldn't it be better if the old man writes it out instead of speaking it out? This is because Broca's area is only responsible for controling speech but not writing
@friggingbomb88 no because the area is associated with syntactic processes so he would have just of a hard time writing. broca's area is more associated with being able to produce language, not just necessarily speech, so I think even deaf people who use sign language would not be able to sign anymore if they suffered a lesion to this area.
What about the matter of second language? I know it seems somewhat irrelevant but if Broca's area is damaged, would it only affects the patient's capability of speaing first or second language, like one could speak fluent German after severe head injury, and forget the way to speak English, which is his or her mother tongue language
@friggingbomb88 i think it would damage their ability to produce any kind of speech/ communication that requires you to output a message in an organized grammatical fashion, so they wouldnt be able to speak german or english. Usually with broca's aphasia though people can still comprehend language, they just can't produce it.
@friggingbomb88 That's rare, but I did hear of a Classics professor who had a stroke, and after recovery, he couldn't speak English any more, but could still speak Ancient Greek fluently. Of course, it would've been better for him if it was a modern language, but there does seem to be some cases where you can damage one language without affecting another.
Would you think that they are all curable? I checked the videos for Sarah Scott, who is a teen suffered Broca's Aphasia after a stroke, and she indeed had progress for recovering her ability to speak, but it seems to be a frigging long way for her :(
@friggingbomb88 Sorry, but I doubt it. There's only so much the brain can recover from. But the younger she got it, the better her chances of recovery are. Maybe not fully recover, but improvement. I checked the videos, and it says she got it when she was 18, so her recovery is limited. Still, not to old. She'll probably recover a fair bit more if she keeps up the therapy.
Watched the video: wow. She's actually doing REALLY well. You can understand her almost perfectly. She's either very lucky, very good at her treatment, or both.
I am a med student. I have seen lots of this. It is not funny at all. Broca's area (Motor/non-fluent aphasia) is serious. Patients cannot understand you sometimes plus unable to say things! EXpRessive dysfuction. Empathy crucial here in those of Old school medicine!
My grandfather would cry when he was trying to communicate with us. He loved to talk. It was so sad to watch. Then he just stopped speaking altogether.
i am almost crying, this is happened to my father last year. I feel sad and depressed because I cannot talk with my dad like before. I wish the time can go back so we can enjoy every day we had , fully.

@PuraVid4 Actually it’s quite the opposite. With Wernicke's aphasia the patient cannot comprehend speech but can speak quite fluently. With Broca's Aphasia the patient can understand everything but will struggle to speak and write. Broca's Aphasia patients are often very frustrated and depressed compared to Wernicke's Aphasia patients who are generally quite happy C:
@Mykl0r I guess its a matter of what you feel is the better of the two. I would prefer to be able to immerse myself in a good book or listening to my family speak to me.
With wernickes aphasia it would be more like watching a movie in a foreign language.
Watching this video terrifies me. My wife, who is forty eight years old, had a stroke just seven weeks ago and she has Broncas aphasia, like this fellow. She is completely intact in terms of her intelligence, her personality, her sense of humour. all the same as before the stroke. To not be able to communicate has been difficult for her. I am so worried that she will not recover. Please pray for my wife and anyone else with this affliction.
Having a learning disability called dysnomia, because of which I frequently cannot remember words I was just going to use in speech and writing. This would be words I know and have used for years but because of some little glitch in my brain I can't access. It sucks. People are impatient and dismissive when I forget a word I was going to use in the middle of a sentence. The act like I am stupid. I know I am not stupid. I am sure it was so much worse for this guy.
Probably not long at all as I can type fairly quickly and the dysnomia doesn't affect me all the time. It may have taken me some time to post it as I tend to get sidetracked by life or even by a computer game I am playing. Or sometimes I have to put something down until I can access a word I need.
I am not stupid. My IQ is actually pretty high. I even managed to get a BS in nursing although I have dysnomia and ADD.n I just have a little trouble now and then finding the word
Broca's area deals with formation of words. Wernike's area deals with the comprehension of words. People with Broca's Aphasia understand what they are hearing, but they have an impaired ability to form the words needed for a response. People with Wernike's Aphasia don't understand what they are hearing and what they say doesn't make any sense (although the words are spoken well)
Sorry, by 'incomprehensible' I don't mean that there are articulation issues. I mean that what they say deviates into what my lecturer calls 'fluent nonsense'... just thought I'd clarify.
i'm sorry if this makes me sound ignorant... I just started studying language disorders. Do people with Broca's aphasia know that they have difficulty communicating, or is it like Wernicke's, where [as far as I know] the person thinks that what they're saying makes sense, but in reality it's generally incomprehensible?
@snowangel21111 I believe Broca's aphasia sufferers are aware of their difficulty, unlike Wernicke's. I think a lot of them show great frustration when they try to communicate and can't.
My grandfather had a brain tumor about a year ago which left him with aphasia. It is a very tragic thing to happen to someone as their whole life is completely changed and they feel extremely depressed.
They dont really know, maybe just one of them things, it happened 6 days after having a baby so could be after delivery... i dont think i will ever have an answer...
With expressive aphasia (or the outdated, Broca's Aphasia), the clinical picture is one in which the patient has problems initiating speech. This cannot be due to problems simply with the mouth, soft palate, or tongue - the problem originates in the brain. A person with expressive aphasia can follow commands, and can understand what is being said to him/her. I've witnessed this up close and personal.
He can respond to commands, but just can't "think" of the right thing to say. He has a problem with his expression, not understanding what the examiner is saying.
I've actually studied this and witnessed it in real life. He has a problem with self-expression. A person with this type of language disorder should be able to follow commands. He doesn't have a problem understanding words or syntax, just producing.Have any of you ever studied Neurology or given a Neurologic Examination? Maybe my last post was muddled. We don't even use the terms 'Broca's' or 'Wernicke's' anymore. What this man is suffering from is expressive aphasia, or non-fluent aphasia.
im studying mmm kinesiology its called its something like physical therapys ... but we treat people with neurological sytoms 2... i have seen a lot of people with broca aphasia or wernicke ... and some other ...and it so frustrating... we try to give them the best of the threatment but its so difficult ...
Unfortunately, before August, I might've found the 'tono' comments funny. Then my mother had a stroke, and is now an aphasia patient.
And it's not nearly as funny, anymore. She struggles every day to try and voice what she wants to say. It's very hard to see your own mother not even be able to say her daughter's name.

Exactly. Does your mother go to an aphasia support group? I had the very humbling privilege of helping to teach one such support group and it is so unbelievably helpful to these people. There are people who are in different stages of recovery, from one woman who had her stroke 18 years ago to a man who had one only three months ago. No matter the time period, though, every single person wanted to learn and improve and every single family member was supportive. It's really extraordinary! :)
@keritink i understand how you feel, but in regard to your past sense of humor, i dont know how you thought you might find this funny. im a 17 year old kid in high school who laughs at the worst things, but this isnt funny in the slightest bit. it is just sad. im just saying that this is no laughing matter, i agree with you, but nobody should laugh at this
@keritink i understand how you feel, but in regard to your past sense of humor, i dont know how you thought you might find this funny. im a 17 year old kid in high school who laughs at the worst things, but this isnt funny in the slightest bit. it is just sad. im just saying that this is no laughing matter, i agree with you, but nobody should laugh at this. my heart goes out to your mother
@beecher78 I was simply making an honest statement. There are plenty of things in the world that people find funny, that aren't funny at all. So, I apologize if my honesty offends you, but.. I should think my honesty would be appreciated, especially when I was realizing a flaw in myself.
The "tono" comments are really unnecessary. Imagine knowing what you're trying to say and not being able to, ever again. It's not something that's funny or laughable and comments like that just frustrate those who try to help these people.
Yeah, I was sick with some sort of meningitis-type thing once, and it was almost like this. From what I understand it's like you have to think real hard to remember every word. Like when you have a word at the tip of your tongue, but all the time.
Similar to Wernicke's asphasia Broca's asphasia is a speaking disorder caused by a stoke. On the other hand unlike Wernicke's the patient knows what he should say but he can't come out with it. It's kinda like stage fright 24/7.
If it was Wernicke's his speech would be fluent but wouldn't make sense. What this guy's saying makes sense, but his speech is very deliberate and lacks function words.
It must be so frustrating to have this aphasia, knowing what you want to say but not being able to find the words, other videos of this condition show lovely people trying to answer questions but they just can't! :(
As a medical student I appreciate these videos about aphasias a lot. Thanx for uploading. Neurology is a fascinating speciality. I hope we can cure these impairments one day.
@OrganizationsIV I do believe in some cases such as tumors causing slow destruction of Broca's area, the surrounding tissues seem to take over the function. I do not know if this is possible in the case of an infarct or trauma.
yeah it's pretty awful. I'd still rather have this than Wernicke's aphasia I guess... he is probably still able to write correct? It must be incredibly frustrating.
writing is affected...basically your whole storage of words is nowhere to be found. And when it is found its quite meaningless. No expression of thought.
can a patient with broca's write out the words they want to communicate? or if shown cards with statements, could he point and show which statement is the one he wants?
very good example of broca's aphasia. the subject understands properly what he's told, the language production is very poor ("telegraphic language", just a few words not linked each other). thx for posting, man. this is a veru useful learning way.

@keritink i understand how you feel, but in regard to your past sense of humor, i dont know how you thought you might find this funny. im a 17 year old kid in high school who laughs at the worst things, but this isnt funny in the slightest bit. it is just sad. im just saying that this is no laughing matter, i agree with you, but nobody should laugh at this

@beecher78 I was simply making an honest statement. There are plenty of things in the world that people find funny, that aren't funny at all. So, I apologize if my honesty offends you, but.. I should think my honesty would be appreciated, especially when I was realizing a flaw in myself.

@keritink I feel sorry for your mother and I really hope she's getting better now.

The "tono" comments are really unnecessary. Imagine knowing what you're trying to say and not being able to, ever again. It's not something that's funny or laughable and comments like that just frustrate those who try to help these people.

Yeah, I was sick with some sort of meningitis-type thing once, and it was almost like this. From what I understand it's like you have to think real hard to remember every word. Like when you have a word at the tip of your tongue, but all the time.

Broca's aphasia patients have good comprehension but can't say it out perfectly. B as in Broken speech.
iadknee 2 years ago
Similar to Wernicke's asphasia Broca's asphasia is a speaking disorder caused by a stoke. On the other hand unlike Wernicke's the patient knows what he should say but he can't come out with it. It's kinda like stage fright 24/7.

If it was Wernicke's his speech would be fluent but wouldn't make sense. What this guy's saying makes sense, but his speech is very deliberate and lacks function words.

It must be so frustrating to have this aphasia, knowing what you want to say but not being able to find the words, other videos of this condition show lovely people trying to answer questions but they just can't! :(

@OrganizationsIV I do believe in some cases such as tumors causing slow destruction of Broca's area, the surrounding tissues seem to take over the function. I do not know if this is possible in the case of an infarct or trauma.

yeah, broca's aphasia effects and impairs an ability to produce speech. wernicke's relates to comprehending speech.

here quite opposite situation. Patient understand questions, but can't say clear answers.

yeah it's pretty awful. I'd still rather have this than Wernicke's aphasia I guess... he is probably still able to write correct? It must be incredibly frustrating.

yes they can still write, its just they can't produce the words they are trying to make
kfree21 2 years ago
Produce verbally. Writing should be fine. Correct?
dragon1234178 2 years ago
writing is affected...basically your whole storage of words is nowhere to be found. And when it is found its quite meaningless. No expression of thought.

can a patient with broca's write out the words they want to communicate? or if shown cards with statements, could he point and show which statement is the one he wants?
smileygurl1023 3 years ago
I know they're not able to write. They might be able to point though. They seem to show comprehension, just not the ability to communicate properly.
rfsun22 3 years ago
They can comprehend because that is within Wernicke's area, however the production of words is difficult
soccergolferguy 3 years ago
very good example of broca's aphasia. the subject understands properly what he's told, the language production is very poor ("telegraphic language", just a few words not linked each other). thx for posting, man. this is a veru useful learning way.
