Language and the brain 1. Paul pierre broca (1861, 1865): an area the left frontal lobe (broca's) area appeared to be responsible for the ability to speak and noted that an injury to the left side of the brain was much more likely to result in language loss than was an injury to the right side. 2. Wernicke's area is located near the back section of the auditory cortex. This section of the brain is involved in the comprehension of words and the selection of words when producing sentences.
Relationship between Brain and Language To produce a spoken word, the person first chooses a word from the mental dictionary. This processes of access the lexicon activates Wernicke's area, which then interprets the lexical entry, identifying the meaning of the word, how to pronounce it, and so on. The phonetic information for the word (how to pronounce it) is sent via the arcuate fasciculus to Broca's area. Then Broca's area determines what combination of the various articulators is necessary to produce each sound in the word and instructs the motor cortex which muscles to move.
LEFT AND RIGHT HEMISPHIRE • The Right Brain • According to the left-brain, right-brain theory, the right side of the brain is best at expressive and creative tasks.

The left-brain is often described as being better at: • Language • Critical thinking • Numbers
The result of the brain in language will produce: • Monolingual • Bilingualism • multilingualism
Filter Learner’s motives, needs, attitudes and emotional states filter what they hear affecting the quality of language Organizer It is a part of a language learner’s mind which works subconsciously and it is used to generate sentences not learned through memorization. It also guides the acquisition process and limit what can be learned and rejecting material. Monitor Learners consciously formulate sentences and to correct or edit their speech and writing.
