What is expressive aphasia?
Broca’s aphasia. Also known as expressive aphasia,
Non-fluent aphasia
Characterized by partially losing the ability to produce spoken and written language.
Speech will still contain important content, but they may omit articles, prepositions
What is “telegraphic speech”?
Broca’s aphasia – patients exhibit.
Their speech will still contain important content, but they may omit articles, prepositions, and other words that only have grammatical significance. Thus, they are said to have “telegraphic speech.”
