| aphasia |
A general term covering any partial or complete loss of language abilities. The origins are always organic, namely a lesion in the brain. There are literally dozens of varieties of aphasia and the classification systems are based on the (presumed) cortical locale of the lesion, others upon the general sensory and/or motor functions which are impaired and still others on the particular linguistic skills which are lost.
