Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Wernicke’s area is mainly involved in the understanding and processing speech and written language. Wernicke’s area was first discovered by Karl Wernicke in 1876. It’s located in the temporal lobe, just behind your ears. The temporal lobe is also the region where sound is processed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Separated from the frontal lobe by the lateral fissure, the temporal lobe also contains regions dedicated to processing sensory information, particularly important for hearing, recognising language, and forming memories.

Detailed explanation-3: -Recognition of language. The auditory cortex in the temporal lobe is key for hearing and understanding speech, but a range of other structures in the temporal lobe help you understand and give meaning to language. Without the temporal lobe, you could not name objects, remember verbal exchanges, or recognize language.
