| Summary: | Neurolinguistics is known as a study of relationship between brain and language. Human brain consists of three
main parts such as forebrain (crucial part), midbrain (the smallest part), and hindbrain (the lowest part). Basically,
human language centre is located in frontal lobe of human brain where the left and the right hemispheres are
located. Language use sometimes is more dominant in the left hemisphere although the right hemisphere functions
for language. Specifically, the areas that are involved in language are frontal lobe (Broca) and temporal lobe
(Wernicke). The lesion on brain will scientifically cause language disorder which is known as aphasia. The types of
aphasia are Broca’s aphasia, Wernicke’s aphasia, pure word deafness aphasia, conduction aphasia, anomic aphasia,
apraxia aphasia, global aphasia, and aphasia reading and writing (dyslexia). The physical condition of a healthy
brain is very important to prepare the activities of thinking and acting. Thus, the brain must be protected
appropriately. |
