    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Receptive_aphasia

    The more phonemic paraphasias in a word, the harder it is to understand, to the extent at which may become unidentifiable. Often, these unidentifiable words are known as neologisms.

  5. Speech sound disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speech_sound_disorder

    For example, the sounds /k/ and /t/ may not be recognized as having different meanings, so "call" and "tall" might be treated as homophones, both being pronounced as "tall." This is called phoneme collapse, and in some cases many sounds may all be represented by one — e.g., /d/ might replace /t/, /k/, and /ɡ/. As a result, the number of ...

  9. Functional load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_load

    In linguistics and especially phonology, functional load, or phonemic load, is the collection of words that contain a certain pronunciation feature (a phoneme) that makes distinctions between other words. Phonemes with a high functional load distinguish a large number of words from other words, and phonemes with a low functional load ...
