Detailed explanation-1: -As with Broca’s aphasia, repetition is also impaired. Unlike Broca’s aphasia, patients with Wernicke’s aphasia speak with normal fluency and prosody and follow grammatical rules with normal sentence structure.
Detailed explanation-2: -People with Wernicke’s aphasia are often unaware of their spoken mistakes. Another hallmark of this type of aphasia is difficulty understanding speech. The most common type of nonfluent aphasia is Broca’s aphasia (see figure). People with Broca’s aphasia have damage that primarily affects the frontal lobe of the brain.
Detailed explanation-3: -Emphasize key words. Don’t “talk down” to the person with aphasia. Give them time to speak. Resist the urge to finish sentences or offer words. Communicate with drawings, gestures, writing and facial expressions in addition to speech.
