what language is okay and so as i mentioned earlier you can localize my language area your language area in a few minutes okay like 15 minutes i can listen to language listen to non-language or backward speech or something and and we'll find areas left lateralized network in my head which is especially which is very sensitive to language as opposed to whatever that control was okay

Just sentences. You know, I'm listening to English of any kind, a story, or I can read sentences, anything at all that I understand, if I understand it, then it'll activate my language network. So right now my language network is going like crazy when I'm talking and when I'm listening to you because we're both communicating.

Yeah, it's incredibly stable. So I happen to be married to this woman at Federico, and so I've been scanned by her over and over and over since 2007 or 2006 or something. And so my language network is exactly the same, you know, like a month ago as it was back in 2007. It's amazingly stable. It's astounding. It's fantastic. really fundamentally cool thing. My language network is like my face.

It's not changing much over time inside my head.

We don't know. That's a very hard question. They're working on that right now because of the problem of scanning little kids. Trying to do the localization on little children in this scanner. You're lying in the fMRI scan. That's the best way to figure out where something's going on inside our brains.

and the scanner is loud, and you're in this tiny little area, you're claustrophobic, and it doesn't bother me at all. I can go to sleep in there. But some people are bothered by it, and little kids don't really like it, and they don't like to lie still. And you have to be really still, because if you move around, that messes up the coordinates of where everything is. And so...

Your question is, how and when are language developing? How does this left-lateralized system come to play? And it's really hard to get a two-year-old to do this task. But you can maybe, they're starting to get three and four and five-year-olds to do this task for short periods. And it looks like it's there pretty early.
