==Presentation== Some examples: *Increasing use of circumlocutions rather than specific terms (e.g., "I wonder where the thing that goes here is"). *Use of empty phrases, indefinite terms, and pronouns without antecedents (i.e., referring to something or someone as "it" or "him / her" without first identifying them by name). *Increased frequency of pauses.<ref name=":0" /> Anomic Aphasia refers to word-finding problems as a type of aphasia. Its typical characteristics are: *Trouble using correct names for people, places, or things. *Speaking hesitantly because of difficulty naming words. *Grammatical skills are unaffected. *Comprehension is normal. *Difficulty finding words may be evident in writing as well as speech. *Reading ability may be impaired. *Having knowledge of what to do with an object, but still unable to name to the object. *Severity levels vary from one person to another.<ref>{{Cite news | url=http://www.speech-therapy-on-video.com/wordfindingdifficulty.html | title = Understanding Word Finding Difficulty: Facts and Solutions | last = | first = | date = |work=Speech-Therapy-on-Video.com|access-date=2018-08-10|archive-url=|archive-date=|url-status=}}</ref>
