"transcortical sensory aphasia"की परिभाषा और अर्थ

What is "transcortical sensory aphasia"?

Transcortical sensory aphasia is a type of language disorder that occurs due to damage to areas surrounding Wernicke's area in the brain. Individuals with this condition can typically repeat words and phrases but have significant difficulties with language comprehension and the production of meaningful speech. Their speech may be fluent but can lack coherence or relevance, making it difficult to engage in meaningful conversations. While they may struggle to understand spoken or written language, their ability to repeat phrases remains intact. This condition is often associated with brain injuries, strokes, or other neurological issues. Speech therapy can help improve communication strategies and overall language function.
