Talk:Receptive aphasia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There is a Star Trek Deep Space nine episode where the entire ship becomes infected with an aphasia-virus. Can anyone find an episode number and airing date for this?
It's "Babel", episode 5, season 1. Airing date is 15 Jun 2003.
Also, it should be noted that the House episode mentioned in the article doesn't really seem to represent receptive aphasia very well, since the patient had perfect comprehension (and in fact was able to communicate using "yes" and "no"). Might be more appropriate to move that reference into the general aphasia article.
[edit] Spoiler warning?
I don't see any spoiling here. I think it's better to remove this warning message. --Theguys 01:17, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Unintelligible sentence
"Patients who recover from Wernicke's aphasia report that while aphasic they found the speech of others to be unintelligible, and even though they knew they were speaking, they could neither stop themselves nor understand what they had just said.
- Who were speaking? Patients or others?
- Understand what WHO just said? Patients or others?
This sentence has 2 actors (patients and others) and 4 times "they". I cannot understand what does it mean. --Urod 05:54, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
