Auditory agnosia

  • Word-deafness
  • Sensory amusia

Despite being able to hear normally, the individual cannot recognize the significance of the sound heard. This may be extended to word-deafness, when spoken (as opposed to written) speech is not recognized; and to sensory amusia, when music is not recognized as such.
