Fluent Aphasia

Fluent aphasia, also known as Wernicke's aphasia, is a language disorder caused by damage to parts of the brain responsible for understanding and producing meaningful speech. People with this condition often speak fluently with normal rhythm and tone, but their sentences may lack meaning or include incorrect words, making them difficult to understand. They may also have trouble understanding spoken or written language. Despite speaking smoothly, their communication can be fragmented or nonsensical. Fluent aphasia typically results from brain injury, such as a stroke, affecting the language centers in the left side of the brain.
