Answer:

Wernicke's aphasia; Broca's aphasia

Step-by-step explanation:

Wernicke's aphasia: The Wernicke's aphasia is defined as the difficulty faced by an individual in understanding other's speech and speaking coherent sentences. A Wernicke's aphasia is considered to be one of the common forms of fluent aphasia and occurs due to the damage in the left middle side of the brain.

Broca's aphasia: The term Broca's aphasia is also referred to as Expressive aphasia, and is distinguished as the partial loss in the ability of an individual to produce or develop language i.e, manual, spoken, or written. The comprehension of an individual experiencing Broca's aphasia remains intact and will exhibit effortful speech.
