Abstract
Aphasia is a neurogenic communication disorder characterized by deficits in processes underlying language comprehension and/or expression caused by acquired brain injury (typically stroke) to or progressive neurodegeneration in language cortex. The manner in which post-stroke aphasia and primary progressive aphasia (PPA) are classified—and to a certain extent studied—differs. Yet language deficits are ubiquitous across both disorders, resulting in similarities in language assessment and treatment of the disorders.
