bilingualism in the brain

Bilingualism in the brain involves the simultaneous use and management of two languages, which activates specific areas responsible for language processing, often including the left frontal and temporal lobes. When switching between languages, the brain exercises executive functions like attention and control. Regular use of two languages can enhance cognitive skills, such as problem-solving and multitasking, by strengthening neural connections. Overall, bilingualism shapes brain structure and function, promoting mental flexibility and resilience, demonstrating how the brain adapts to handle multiple language systems efficiently.
