Abstract

The work is a psycholinguistics study which attempts to define Alzheimer with the connection of the process of speech production. It also views that Alzheimer causes various types of speech production. To clarify more, the part of the brain which is responsible for producing the language is exposed by a figure that presents the damaged area leads to this disease. It also discusses how this process differs in those suffering from it with the normal people.




The paper concludes that the people who have damaged brain in the part responsible for production (Broca’s area) face problems in the speaking skill and they cannot communicate coherently. This leads that the sufferers are finally disconnected to society and isolate themselves from daily communications.
