Human language is the result of the interaction between biological mechanisms, learning and brain organisation, without depending on isolated centres such as those postulated by Broca and Wernicke. Current evidence shows that a network distributed across frontal, temporal, and parietal areas, coordinated with perceptual, motor, and cognitive systems, allows internal representations to be transformed into words and generate meaning. This approach reveals that language is a dynamic process, where neural specialisation and plasticity combine for linguistic acquisition, processing, and production.
