Broca[edit]

Broca's aphasia is different; it is caused by brain damage. Expressive language disorder isn't caused by brain damage; it's caused by other biological causes or upbringing, depending which side of the nature vs. nurture view is supported by the interpreter.

I agree. I am not sure why it would be merged.

cleanup needed[edit]

Third paragraph especially: "There must be..." not very encyclopeadic. P.S. please sign your posts! --geekyßroad^{. meow?} 18:26, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

External links[edit]

External links on Wikipedia are supposed to be "encyclopedic in nature" and useful to a worldwide audience. Please read the external links policy (and perhaps the specific rules for medicine-related articles) before adding more external links.

The following kinds of links are inappropriate:

Online discussion groups or chat forums
Personal webpages and blogs
Multiple links to the same website
Fundraising events or groups
Websites that are recruiting for clinical trials
Websites that are selling things (e.g., books or memberships)

I realize that some links are helpful to certain users, but they still do not comply with Wikipedia policy, and therefore must not be included in the article. WhatamIdoing (talk) 05:37, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the information posted for expressive language disorder is written unprofessionally - i.e. put onto a younger level?

An expressive language disorder has nothing to do with speech, it is specifically a langauge disorder.

And I agree with you, Broca's is an acquired language disorder - expressive lagnuage disorder is a development disorder. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.109.92.175 (talk) 17:54, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This article sounds as though it were written by a third-grader. I was hoping to find something useful here for research I am doing for a paper. This is totally worthless. I found more (and better) information on this subject at wiseGEEK. (Nowhere enough for my needs of course) Please do something here, even if it's only a re-write of what's here already.

Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.231.146.159 (talk) 07:27, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
