Abstract
Cognitive Neuropsychology aims to understand the processing mechanisms of normal and injured brain, by means of functional architectural models of information processing. Naming is one of the most important abilities in linguistic processing. Naming of different semantic and grammatical categories differ in their lexical properties and have distinct neuroanatomical substrates. We reviewed literature data on the differences between nouns and verbs in aphasic subjects reported by scientific publications in the form of indexed articles. Studies on naming abilities tended to emphasize the differentiation between nouns and verbs both in their lexical properties and neuroanatomical substrates. Functional neuroimaging studies have improved the state of knowledge regarding category-specific naming abilities, but further studies on different types of aphasia and the use of naming abilities in different contexts are warranted.

Studies in brain-injured subjects suggest that verb production is related to the left frontal cortex, including regions of the ventrolateral prefrontal cortex, posterior frontal gyrus, and Broca’s area.[20,24,25]
Summary
Abstract – Cognitive Neuropsychology aims to understand the processing mechanisms of normal and injured brain, by means of functional architectural models of information processing. Cognitive Neuropsychology aims to understand the processing mechanisms of normal and injured brain by means of functional architectural models of information processing. It emphasizes that linguistic abilities are organized into multiple processes within subsystems that interact with each other, while maintaining some degree of independency.[2]. This example depicts lexical processing and how different abilities (naming, reading, and writing) interact with each other through neural networks.[2]. Based on the principles of Cognitive Neuropsychology, the visual confrontation naming process
