Mild aphasia and subtitles

Hi everyone, 

 

I just what to see if many other mild-aphasia sufferers, use subtitles in TV or films. I have no problems (now) reading a book or my iPhone, but I still use subtitles to check my comprehension and listening abilities. A great place is TED talks because they have all subtitles. 

 

But, watching foreign TV or films, is quite difficult because I can't read fast enough to follow what they are saying. That means I have to stop the film and read it. 

 

Does anybody else use subtitles? 

 

If you haven't, try them as I have found them very good for my recovery from aphasia both reading and listening.

Hi Marcus

 

Great suggestions on the subtitles, no I have never used subtitles myself - but I for sure reckon they would have been helpful for me way back when I was in early recovery.
