[Model of a neurological theory of speech]
Abstract
Recently, theories of neuronal computation in the brain have become detailed enough, so that it becomes possible to speculate about mechanisms underlying the production and perception of language. How many neurons are involved when we utter, or understand, a word, a phoneme, a phrase? In what neuronal form are the rules of grammar laid down in the synaptic network? To what does a morpheme correspond in the brain?
