چکیده
Background: the phonological characterization of the errors present in the speech of individuals with speech apraxia can elucidate several aspects of this disorder and consequently lead to the development of effective therapeutic interventions. Generally, studies that have characterized the errors present in speech apraxia were developed in other languages other than the Brazilian Portuguese (BP). The existing national literature about this theme is based on these studies. Aim: to present the phonological analysis of the errors present in the speech of individuals with speech apraxia, speakers of the BP language. Method: 20 adults with speech apraxia were evaluated. The analysis of phonological errors, such as substitution and omission was made. Results: a few of the most affected phonemes in the speech of apraxic individuals (/b/, /λ / e /Ʒ /), speakers of the BP language, were different from those usually described in international studies. Conclusion: results suggest that the errors present in the speech of apraxic individuals can suffer the influence of language once the most frequent errors found in the present study were different from those described in the international literature.
