Combine Aphasia and Dsyphasia?[edit]

In modern usage aphasia and dysphasia are equal, in my experience. Aphasia is the preferred term, to avoid confusion with dysphagia. --kylet 18:12, 12 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

In the UK dysphasia means difficulty with speech and aphasia means absence of speech. (Similarily you have dysphagia and aphagia). Dysphasia is therefore the preferred term because it's quite rare for people to be truly aphasic. 87.194.191.177 00:20, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
