1. 3 areas responsible for the speech
1.1. Broca`s area
1.1.1. producing speech
1.2. Wernicke`s area
1.2.1. speech comprehension
1.3. The arcuate fasciculus
1.3.1. connection of 2 areas
2. 3 stages of studying the influence of language on the brain
2.1. Linguistic stage
2.2. Psychological stage
2.3. Neurophysiological stage
3. Areas of brain
3.1. Frontal-higher area
3.2. Temporal
3.3. Broca`s area
3.4. Left superior temporal gyros
3.5. Left inferior frontal gyros
4. 3 main brain parts
4.1. The celebrum
4.1.1. speech formation
4.1.2. speech understanding
4.2. The cerebellum
4.2.1. opening and closing mouth
