This study will also discuss about the language of the people who suffer from
aphasia and its relationship to morphology, phonology and psycholinguistic.
Fluency disorders interesting to study because of interference can hinder a
person's fluency in communicating with others, so as to affect the psychological
condition and can be fatal and make it isolated from the social environment and
education. By doing this research, we can expect to know the influence of aphasia
on linguistic and psychological.

Afasia. Meskipun gangguan afasia yang dialami pasien stroke hanya sekitar 15 %,
namun sangat mengganggu karena mereka akan mengalami kesulitan dalam
berkomunikasi dengan individu lain. Dari berbagai jenis afasia tersebut, afasia
broca menjadi bahan penelitian dalam tesis ini. Penelitian ini dilakukan terhadap
seorang informan yang telah mengalami afasia broca. Afasia yang dialami
informan disebabkan oleh stroke hemaragik di belahan otak kiri. Dampak dari
stroke tersebut menyisakan afasia broca dan melemahnya fungsi kaki sebelah
kanan. Afasia broca disebut juga afasia motorik. Afasia broca ditandai oleh
gangguan atau hilangnya kemampuan untuk menyatakan pikiran-pikiran yang
dapat dimengerti dalam bentuk bicara dan menulis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk

Aphasia
Aphasia is a condition that robs you of the ability to communicate.
Aphasia can affect your ability to express and understand language, both verbal
and written. Aphasia typically occurs suddenly after a stroke or a head injury. But
it can also come on gradually from a slowly growing brain tumor or a
degenerative disease. The amount of disability depends on the location and the
severity of the brain damage. Once the underlying cause has been treated, the
primary treatment for aphasia is speech therapy that focuses on relearning and
practicing language skills and using alternative or supplementary communication
methods. Family members often participate in the therapy process and function as
communication partners of the person with aphasia.
Aphasia is usually caused by a stroke or brain injury with damage to one
or more parts of the brain that deal with language. According to the National
Aphasia Association, about 25% to 40% of people who survive a stroke get
aphasia. Aphasia may also be caused by a brain tumor, brain infection,
or dementia such as Alzheimer's disease. In some cases, aphasia is a symptom of
epilepsy or other neurological disorder.
There are types of aphasia. Each type can cause impairment that varies from
mild to severe. Common types of aphasia include the following:
Receptive aphasia (fluent): With receptive aphasia, the person can hear a
voice or read the print, but may not understand the meaning of the
message. Oftentimes, someone with receptive aphasia takes language
literally. Their own speech may be disturbed because they do not
understand their own language.
Global aphasia. This is the most severe type of aphasia. It is often seen
right after someone has a stroke. With global aphasia, the person has
difficulty speaking and understanding words. In addition, the person is
unable to read or write.
Aphasia may be mild or severe. With mild aphasia, the person may be able to
converse, yet have trouble finding the right word or understanding complex
conversations. Severe aphasia limits the person's ability to communicate. The
person may say little and may not participate in or understand any conversation.
METHODOLOGY
In this study, the researcher use qualitative approach. So, collected data divided
from interviews, field notes, personal documents, and record memos. The purpose
of this qualitative study was to describe the empirical reality behind the
phenomenon in depth, detailed, and complete. Therefore, the use of a qualitative
approach in this research is to match the empirical reality with the prevailing
theory by using descriptive method. We consider using qualitative research is a
research procedure that produces descriptive data in the form of words written or
spoken by observation of informants who have aphasia Broca, who had suffered a
stroke, and the rest of the stroke in the left hemisphere resulted in disruption of the
temporal lobe regions precisely in Broca's area. In this study, researchers act as
data collectors and as an active instrument in efforts to collect data in the field.
While the data collection instruments other than Broca's aphasia patients are
various forms of tools and such other documents that can be used to support the
validity of research results, but serves as a supporting instrument.

3. Data collection techniques
Data collection techniques used was interviews, and documentation. The
technique used by researchers, as a phenomenon it would be good to
understand its meaning, if researchers interact with the research subjects in
which phenomena occurred.
a. Interview techniques
Interview techniques used in the study were interviews, where
researcher's asking some questions related to the focus issue, so
with this interview of data can be collected as much as possible. As
informant in this research is Abdullah and he is 50 years old.
b. Technical documentation
In qualitative research, this technique is the main tool of data
collection.

There are also people with aphasia are fluent in speaking, and form
syntaxsis also quite good. However, sentences difficult to understand because
many words that do not match their meanings in other words before and after.
This is because people with aphasia is often mistaken in choosing a word, for
example, said the fair was replaced with the word chair, carrot with cabbage, and
so on. There are also people with aphasia are impaired in oral comprehensive. He
is not easy to understand what we say. In addition there are many other symptoms.
Syntax and morphological error
Language according to Chomsky tends to be rational mentality. He said
that the linguist is actually a cognitive psychologist. For him, the grammar is no
longer seen as something apart from human cognition as a constituent in an
utterance actually reflect the reality of human psychology that there is.
(Dardjowidjojo, 2008: 6) A sentence he formulated into S (Sentence) NP (noun
phrase) + VP (verb phrase) as the core sentence that can be expanded or modified
by transformation. He also distinguishes in grammatical concept and the concept
of meaningfulness. The following data is one source that involves the use of the
characteristics of the context to facilitate their understanding of lexical items and
passive sentences were reversed order
(a. questioner : bapak namanya siapa?
(b. In: abdulah
(a. bapak sudah makan?
(b. dah
The above data indicate that the informant could only answer questions
with one word, the informant was not able to answer the question with a perfect
sentence in accordance with the grammatical structure of language or good as the
drafting of the subject, verb and object, informants can only express one word but
we still can understand it, because the informant was able to understand the
question the questioner that the informant was able to understand and know the
answer must be in say that the questioner and listener can understand it, so that
the informant knew when he had to answer the question with one word form,
subject, verb or object .
a)bapak kalau sore-sore gini ngapain?
b)unclear,,,,
In an interview in the above piece of data seems informant is no longer clear
even hardly able to understand his words, this could be in because the question
was too long so that the informant cannot understand the question. In conversation
above informants express the difficulty answer, so it can not be the detection of
another construction of a sentence, replace informant role in the sentence
structure. Basically the structure of birth (surface structure) of a sentence is the
result of the transformation of the inner structure (deep structure) was born the
same structure not necessarily contain the same inner structure as well. This is
evident in the second data. The data show that Chomsky's theory can be applied
by using the deep structure; it is S NP + VP.
a) Questioner: coba bapak bilang,(ular,lari)
b) Informan : ular,,lari,,ular lari,,
From the above conversation informant can say more than one word clear but
through the guidance of the questioner, however informant does not know the
word structure, the informant only follow what is instructed by the questioner.
The conclusion is a state informant impaired expression of proving the
existence of mutual engagement in the process of language; attention or haste
informants resulted in the creation of language structure tangling. The existence of
the inner structure and the structure of birth was also proved by a brain injury that
occurs on the left informant. This is evident from the language which bore a mess
so that the production of unusual language uttered at the culture and habits of
people in general.
