  2. Paraphasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraphasia

    Neologistic paraphasias, a substitution with a non-English or gibberish word, follow pauses indicating word-finding difficulty. [13] They can affect any part of speech, and the previously mentioned pause can be used to indicate the relative severity of the neologism; less severe neologistic paraphasias can be recognized as a distortion of a real word, and more severe ones cannot.

  3. Phonemic awareness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonemic_awareness

    Phoneme identity: which requires recognizing the common sound in different words, for example, "Tell me the sound that is the same in bike, boy and bell" (/b/). Phoneme substitution: in which one can turn a word (such as "cat") into another (such as "hat") by substituting one phoneme (such as /h/) for another (/k/). Phoneme substitution can ...

  4. Speech sound disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_sound_disorder

    Others don’t hear that difference, however, [7] because the two sounds are not treated as separate phonemes in the language being spoken. Though phonemic disorders are often considered language disorders in that it is the language system that is affected, they are also speech sound disorders in that the errors relate to the use of phonemes.

  5. Receptive aphasia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Receptive_aphasia

    Phonemic substitution anomia: describes patients that exhibit paraphasia when trying to name objects. This can result in patients either selecting incorrect phonemes, such as saying 'bad' when shown an image of a 'bat', or they may simply try to use non-real words, or neologisms. [9] Neologisms: Neologism is a Greek-derived word meaning "new ...

  6. Speech error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_error

    Substitution errors, for instance, reveal parts of the organization and structure of the mental lexicon. Target: My thesis is too long. Error: My thesis is too short. In case of substitution errors both segments mostly belong to the same category, which means for example that a noun is substituted for a noun.

  7. Sound change - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_change

    In historical linguistics, a sound change is a change in the pronunciation of a language. A sound change can involve the replacement of one speech sound (or, more generally, one phonetic feature value) by a different one (called phonetic change) or a more general change to the speech sounds that exist (phonological change), such as the merger of two sounds or the creation of a new sound.

  8. Phonics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonics

    Phonemic awareness and the resulting knowledge of spoken language is the most important determinant of a child's early reading success. [21] Phonemic awareness is sometimes taught separately from phonics and at other times it is the result of phonics instruction (i.e. segmenting or blending phonemes with letters).

  9. Lexical diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexical_diffusion

    Lexical diffusion is the hypothesis that a sound change is an abrupt change that spreads gradually across the words in a language to which it is applicable. [1] It contrasts with the Neogrammarian view that a sound change results from phonetically-conditioned articulatory drift acting uniformly on all applicable words, which implies that sound changes are regular, with exceptions attributed to ...
