Hello people,
I'm wondering whether it's possible to suffer a stroke and be severly impaired in speech and still understand perfectly what people are saying.
I imagine such a person would be able to communicate perfectly and quickly by typing the words on a computer keyboard or writing on a sheet of paper, but talking would be utterly hard. Is this possible?
Or does the disability in speech also disables comprehension of speech and disables any way to "think with words" in the mind.
Thanks.
