Abstract:
The functional lateralization of the brain for language is a dynamic process going on during the life. The sole responsibility for ensuring normal speech lies within the neural nets of the left hemisphere. The right hemisphere who has a predominant role in extra-linguistic communication maintain a linguistic potential linked with age and modalities of lateralization. Methods allowing his activation have for first objective the recovery of an elementary communication.

Language formation and comprehension take place in the dominant hemisphere. The dominant hemisphere is responsible for understanding the meaning of spoken, written, or sign language, as well as the ability to communicate. For most people, the left hemisphere is the dominant one. The right hemisphere, then, gives tone and emotional context to the...
