Word Substitution
I’m having a word-finding problem that doesn’t seem to be aphasia and doesn’t seem related to Freud’s ideas about forgetting. I think one word and type a different complete word, not a typo.
I’ve started making a list of such instances, trying to make sense of it and learn to cope with it:
· logical becomes local
· front becomes from
· attended becomes attending
· when becomes win
· since becomes when
· woke becomes work
· booths become books
· made becomes meant
· wide becomes wild
Have you ever heard of such a problem? Is there a name for it?
