How do those with dysphasia talk?

Normally: Dysphagia is difficultly swallowing. Patients may speak normally, or some patients may have a hoarse voice for vocal cord irritation.

It depends: Those with dysphasia (also called aphasia) can have various problems with speaking depending on the area of the brain affected since different parts of the brain control different language functions. Speech therapy helps people improve. This term is often confused with dysphagia (swallowing problem).
