What is it?
• Ability to associate arbitrary symbols with specific meanings to express thoughts and emotions to ourselves and others by means of spoken and in some culture written language
Components of language• Grammar = obedience to a set of rules
• Syntax = meaning
• Prosody = emotional valence

Language-related areas
Localization of the brain regions implied in language analysis
Broca’s area: production of language
Wernicke’s area: interpretation of language
Geschwind’s territory: apprehending the multiple properties of words

Language-related regions of the left hemisphere mapped by positron emission tomography (PET) in a normal human subject (Prosner and Raichle, 1994)
Activity in Broca’s and Wernicke’s area and in primary and association sensory and motor areas
Language processing involves many cortical regions in addition to the classic language areas

But limitations of this experiment:
• Only 3 patients
• Epileptic patients
• Good resolution but difficult to repeat

Group differences across power spectra increase across age
Early cognitive and language skills are linked to resting frontal gamma power across the first 3 years. 2008.

Variance test at 5-30 and 31-50 Hz band power
The two groups significantly differ for frequencies within the gamma-range

Bootstrap procedure
Bootstrapping is a resampling technique used to obtain estimates of summary statistics.

Limitations and questions on this experiment:
• Correlation or causal link?
• Gamma oscillations due to specific attention or language?
• Gamma oscillation in adult?few studies about this phenomenon

Conclusion
• Language is a complex cognitive function
• Lack of animals model but different methods capable of revealing some features
• Complex brain analysis: many cortical regions implied
• Gamma oscillations play an important role
