neural correlates of language

Neural correlates of language are specific brain areas and networks involved in understanding, producing, and processing language. Key regions include Broca's area (speech production), Wernicke's area (language comprehension), and connections between them that facilitate communication. These areas work together through complex neural pathways, allowing us to interpret meanings, form words, and engage in conversation. Studying these neural correlates helps us understand how the brain supports language functions, including how these processes might be affected by injuries or disorders.
