Aphasia is a condition that can affect all language
areas including speaking, understanding, reading, and writing in
varying degrees.
The following suggestions may be helpful in communicating with a person
who suffers from aphasia:
- Ask questions that call for a yes or no answer
- Speak in short phrases
- Talk about familiar topics or people
- Assume the person understands and avoid talking about him in
his presence
- Give the person time to think of words
