Expressive disorder of speech characterised by poor articulation.
Motor disorder of speech characterised by poor articulation. Difficulty in producing or sustaining range, force, speed and coordination of movements. This affects breathing, phonation, resonance and articulation.
Receptive disorder of speech characterised by poor articulation.

12. Dysmetria is
Lack of coordination of movement typified by undershoot and/or displacement of limbs
Lack of coordination of movement typified by the undershoot and/or overshoot of intended position

13. What is the definition of a TIA and what is the difference from stroke?
An episode of cerebral dysfunction caused by impaired blood supply to the brain vessels. It last 30 minutes and
An episode of tempoary cerebral dysfunction caused by impaired blood flow to the head that usually lasts only a few minutes and resolved in less than 24 hours
An episode of permanent cerebral dysfunction caused by blood no reaching the head. It lasts only 24 hours
