... 5. Damage to Broca’s area of the cortex produces speech difficulty without causing impairment in verbal comprehension (Broca’s aphasia). This evidence suggests that Broca’s area is involved in the motor control of speech. Damage to Wernicke’s area impairs language understanding, but not motor abili ...
