What is aphasia, first of all, and what causes it?

首先什是失语症，是什原因导致失语症？

There are several types of aphasia grouped into two categories: fluent, or receptive, aphasia and non-fluent, or expressive, aphasia.

失语症被分为几种，归属于两大类：流畅，或者善于失语症。

This disorder, called aphasia, can impair all aspects of communication.

So aphasia is essentially an impairment in language abilities.

Aphasia is caused by injury to one or both of these specialized language areas.

But Aphantasia is, like, the reverse, where a patient lacks the so-called " mind's eye."

Meanwhile, many people with aphasia remain isolated, afraid that others won't understand them or give them extra time to speak.
