Language disorders, particularly aphasia, are often caused by stroke, brain injury, or progressive neurological conditions. They affect a person's ability to communicate, even though their intelligence remains intact.

These simulations help you understand why communication partners should speak slowly, use simple sentences, allow extra time for responses, and avoid finishing sentences for people with language disorders.
