Detailed explanation-1: -The cerebrum is divided into the right and left sides, or hemispheres. Depending on the area and side of the cerebrum affected by the stroke, any, or all, of these functions may be impaired: Movement and sensation. Speech and language.
Detailed explanation-2: -Damage to a discrete part of the brain in the left frontal lobe (Broca’s area) of the language-dominant hemisphere has been shown to significantly affect the use of spontaneous speech and motor speech control. Words may be uttered very slowly and poorly articulated.
Detailed explanation-3: -Your brain has many parts but speech is primarily controlled by the largest part of the brain, the cerebrum. The cerebrum can be divided into two parts, called hemispheres, which are joined by a band of nerve fibers called the corpus callosum. Your speech is typically governed by the left side of your cerebrum.
Detailed explanation-4: -Your cerebral cortex is involved in many high-level functions, such as reasoning, emotion, thought, memory, language and consciousness.
