Carol- Sorry, you are correct re my correction. :) My sentence sure seems to say that their speech is all real words- they may use some but Carol is correct that most of what they say sounds articulate and word like but isn't. (I guess that's my 3 posts today as well). I guess that's what we both get for posting hurriedly on our way to class. :) Truth be told, neither of us was incorrect but we could both have been clearer. (and I could have been kinder in my wording as well!) Tim

The articulate part of it, however, does not indicate actual words. People with Wernicke's aphasia may be able to articulate speech sounds quite well, but they may make paraphasic errors in which the words are not actual words, but resemble them. I've used up more than my 3 posts today, we'll see if this one makes it. Carol --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
