Abstract
Acquired aphasia is the loss of language as a result of a brain lesion. The prognosis for recovery from childhood aphasia is variable and is determined by at least four factors: etiology, location of lesion, age at time of lesion, and associated disturbances (Woods, 1982). The goal of therapy for aphasic children is different from that in adults: not only must former language abilities be recovered, but further language acquisition must also be continued.
