In 1865, Pierre Paul Broca pinpointed the part of the brain responsible for language by autopsying brains of the language-impaired-the region is now called Broca's area.

在1865年，皮尔·保罗·布鲁卡通过解剖语言障碍者的大脑，发现了人类的语言中枢，大脑中的那片区域现在就叫作布鲁卡语言区。

Broca 's area locates at the back of the brain and wernicke' s area locates at the front of the brain which are responsible respectively for Chinese to study native language and second language.

布鲁卡语言区与威尔·尼克语言区分别位于人的前后脑，分别负责中国人母语的学习和第二语言的习得。

This study shows that Broca's area is involved in both speaking and comprehension, illustrating that parts of the brain perform more than one task.

Through the implant process,called Intra-cranial Electrophysiology,or ICE, the researchers have found that Broca's area processes three different language functions in succession within a quarter of a second.

For the study, researchers are monitoring the implanted probes on a part of the frontal lobe called Broca's area, named after 19th century French physician Pierre Paul Broca.

Second, Broca's area where the components of language are integrated to produce meaning was less active.

The language centres of the brain, known as Broca's area and Wernicke's area, after the 19th-century researchers who discovered them, are part of the cerebral cortex on the left-hand side of the organ.
