Yes, the eyes, ears, and mouth are important parts when hearing and understanding speech. However, these parts receive and execute functions that stem from a vital organ. The brain. The brain is the command center for everything in your body, and without it you would not be alive, let alone able to talk. Before I can focus on speech-related areas of the brain and what happens when brain development does not go according to plan, it is important to have a brief review of the basic anatomy of the brain. DefinitionsThis was just a brief overview of the parts of the brain. If you want to read more on each individual part, I will paste the links I referenced down below. Takeaway 🎈The most important concept to take away is that the brain is made up of all these very specific parts, but together they work together and and form neural connections that allow us to execute basic and detailed tasks. The brain is the first organ that begins to develop in a fetus and is necessary for other systems of the body to work, since it oversees a person’s physicality and mentality.
