The Human Brain’s Greatest Invention: The Neuroscience of Language (The Social Brain ep 42)

Something fascinating is happening as you watch this video. You are effortlessly converting a series of sounds into meaningful thoughts. To do that, your brain has to take a sound wave and somehow extract from it a specific message that I’m trying to convey to you right now. We rarely stop to think about how weird language is. It’s even rarer that we ask ourselves how our brains do any of that.

In this episode, we’ll talk about all this while exploring some of the neuroscience of language.
