Answer:

Loss of speech

Step-by-step explanation:

Aphasia is a language and communication disorder that is common in stroke patients. It is often caused by an injury to the brain, but it is not limited to a stroke. It can also be caused by a head trauma, neurological illness and/or brain tumor.

Aphasia can come in different forms of speech impediment. Sometimes the affected will experience difficulty putting words together, or won't be able to associate things/persons with their names, or cannot read all of a sudden. At times, they come in combination of these problems.
