Question 1

Anomia vs Dysnomia.

Answer 1

Anomia: Acquired word or name-finding difficulty
Dysnomia: Developmental difficulty in retrieving names or words
Example: While introducing her husband of 23 years to her old boyfriend at the Winter Park 20th High School reunion, Wendy drew a blank and couldn’t remember her husband’s name. Sigmund, her husband, being a psychologist, chalked it up to “repression,” (but we all know it was really anomia).
