wernicke

基本解释

A few years later German neurologist Carl Wernicke identified a second language center farther back, in the brain's left temporal lobe.
几年之后德国神经学家卡尔·韦尼克确定了更远的第二个语言中心，它位于大脑左侧颞叶。
The second was attached to the Wernicke's area, an area just above the left ear that acts as a sort of language translator for the brain.
第二个放置在韦尼克区，该区在左耳上部，类似于大脑的语言翻译。
Patients with strokes or other damage to Wernicke's area are able to talk freely, but they cannot comprehend language, and nothing they say makes any sense.
中风的病人或韦尼克区受损的病人能够流利地说话，但他们不能理解语言，他们说的话也是没有任何意义的。

"Nearly every introductory text book, as well as people practicing in the field in speech pathology, for instance, teaches and believe that there is a separation of tasks and a division of labor between two very different parts of the brain, Broca's area and Wernicke's area , where Broca's area is responsible for producing,for speaking, and Wernicke's for comprehending,"

The team chose to examine Broca's and Wernicke's areas because language-based experiments are easy to conduct.

First, Wernicke's area, the part responsible for understanding individual words, was more active in autists than non-autists.
