What brain are you?

Does such a damage effect linguistic skills too?

Left- hemisphere predominantly controls languauge in most people. The frontal and temporal lobes are the main areas of speech and language. If this area of the brain is injured then speech and language skills will be affected.

Aphasia is an acquired language disorder in which there is an impairment of any language modality. This may include difficulty in producing or comprehending spoken or written language. Aphasia usually results from lesions to the language-relevant areas of the frontal, temporal and parietal lobes of the brain. These areas are almost always located in the left hemisphere, and in most people this is where the ability to produce and comprehend language is found.

Do people with right brain hemisphere damaged find it difficult to understand written material?

Alexia is an acquired type of sensory aphasia where damage to the brain causes a patient to lose the ability to read. It is also called word blindness, text blindness or visual aphasia. It occurs following damage to the left hemisphere of the brain or to the areas of the occipital and parietal lobes, which are responsible for processing auditory, phonological and visual aspects of language.

Check wiki to find out more about the two disorders.

I also found that (thought you might like to know) studies from pateints with acquired right-hemisphere damage lesions that communication skills can be impaired following right-hemisphere damage. However exact role that right-hemisphere plays in language processing and the exact way that two cerebral hemisphere coordinate their linguistics are still open to debate.

Right brain dominant individuals are more visual and intuitive. They are better at summarizing multiple points, picking up on what's not said, visualizing things, and making things up. They can lack attention to detail, directness, organization, and the ability to explain their ideas verbally, leaving them unable to communicate effectively.

Overall you appear to be Right Brain Dominant

So therefore hence and other big words. i iz a geeky Eight brainer!

^^ My Geeky sister. How nice to run into you here. Am also a right brainer, the language-oriented side. Sucked at math, requires loads of the left side ;D Not soo geeky at that.
