Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Difficulty producing spoken language is a symptom of Broca's aphasia, which is associated with damage to Broca's area in the frontal lobe of the cerebral cortex. Wernicke's area is associated with difficulty understanding language (Wernicke's aphasia), while the cerebellum and right parietal lobe are not specifically involved in language production.
