3-Confusion or trouble speaking or understanding

Confusion

From one moment to the next, the person finds it difficult to understand what others are saying or what they are reading (reading and listening comprehension). Also, it becomes difficult for the person to talk correctly. They could even drag the words, babble or not find the correct term with which they want to express their self. Thus, whoever questions them may not understand what they say.

On the other hand, it is also tricky for them to read or write. Troubles in speaking or understanding usually occur when the part of the brain affected is the dominant hemisphere, as well as the Broca’s area and Wernicke’s Area. This zones of the brain play a fundamental role in the processing and production of coordinated speech.
