Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject Didactics - English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, grade: 1,3, University of Münster (Englisches Seminar), course: Cognitive Linguistics, language: English, abstract: "Aphasia is the neurological term for any language disorder that results from brain damagecaused by disease or trauma."1 The disorder is not exclusively found in adults, but mayalso occur in children. To lose the ability to understand and produce language may be amajor catastrophe for children and has enormous consequences for their whole life, even ifspeech is regained after some time.2 Therefore, it is astonishing how little is known aboutthe subject and how controversially it is discussed in literature.
