I think "aphasia" is when you understand but can't speak. I know someone who had a stroke and this is the result.

Definitely sounds like some form of aphasia. My extensive research via Wikipedia (lol) indicates that there are a whole bunch of more specific aphasias that range from having difficulty remembering words to being completely unable to speak, read, or write.

[livejournal.com profile] johnnysbiotch could you update your post to say you are still looking?
