Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Anomic aphasia, also known as nominal aphasia, is characterized by a difficulty in finding and retrieving the right words for specific objects, people or ideas, despite the patient having the ability to understand the meaning of those words. It is usually caused by a lesion in the angular gyrus, which is located in the parietal lobe of the brain. Patients with anomic aphasia generally have difficulty recalling names of objects, people, or places.
