Naming & Word Finding
-
Difficulty thinking of words is present in all types of aphasia.
-
Naming deficits can range from mild (occasional problems thinking of less common words) to severe (difficulty naming everyday objects).
-
Talking about an object's physical characteristics (size, shape, color), location, use, action, and common associations can sometimes help facilitate naming.
