Paragrammatism is primarily associated with which type of aphasia?

Paragrammatism is primarily associated with fluent aphasia, which is a type of aphasia characterized by the ability to produce a relatively normal rate and rhythm of speech but often includes grammatical mistakes and nonsensical or irrelevant content. In fluent aphasia, individuals might utilize incorrect words, omit function words, or create substitutions that disrupt grammatical structure. This condition is often seen in patients with Wernicke's aphasia, where comprehension is significantly impaired but speech remains fluent. The presence of paragrammatism reflects a disruption in the grammatical aspects of language, without complete loss of speech fluency, distinguishing it from other types of aphasia where speech may be more effortful or limited.
