Again, it is based on center-lesion theory, obviously not connection theory. Throughout history (they begin with Auburtin, 1861), this frontal lobe apraxia of speech has been referred to as “aphemia”, Broca’s aphasia, motor aphasia, anarthria, verbal aphasia, phonetic disintegration of speech, apraxia, apraxic dysarthria, cortical dysarthria, and oral 7. Brown (1972, chap. 10) drew a strong correlation between ideational apraxia posterior fluent paraphasic speeches. He wrote: we might almost speak of ideational apraxia as a ’fluent’ apraxia, contrasting it with ’non-fluent’ apraxia of anterior origin.
