title: The production of semantic paralexias in a Spanish-speaking aphasic.
abstract: A case of a Spanish-speaking aphasic patient who produced a great number of semantic paralexias in reading aloud and who showed other symptoms consistent with the diagnosis of deep dyslexia is presented. In this study, (a) the production of semantic paralexias and the features of the deep dyslexia syndrome which have only recently begun to be studied in Spanish-speaking patients, are analyzed; and (b) the "obligatory character of phonological mediation in the reading of Spanish proposed by some authors is discussed.
