LANGUAGE AND THE BRAIN

Left Hemisphere Right Hemisphere The left brain is the logical brain responsible for words, logic, numbers, analysis, lists, linearity and sequence. It controls the right side of your body. Right Hemisphere The right brain is the creative brain and is responsible for rhythm, spatial awareness, colour, imagination, daydreaming, holistic awareness and dimension. It controls the left side of your body.

LANGUAGE AND THE BRAIN

THEORIES OF LANGUAGE Noam Chomsky claims that language is innate. B. F. Skinner claims that language is learned; it is basically a stimulus-response mechanism.

LINGUISTIC COMPETENCE vs PERFORMANCE Linguistic competence refers to having the necessary knowledge to produce language. i.e. “what one knows” Linguistic performance refers to the way we use this knowledge when producing language. i.e. “How one uses this knowledge”

Thank you I wish you all the best Dr. K.T. Khader Associate Professor of Linguistics
