Has to do with some parts of semantics. Caused by a lesion acquired through an accident or through stroke after language had been acquired a normal way. Cover disorders of the normal acquisition of language. Underlying rules behind our knowledge of phonology and syntax and semantics. 2 major types of word error that occur as a result of aphasia.
