where does language come from in the brain?
cerebral cortex
just as there are two types of brain death - whole brain death (which refers to the irreversible cessation of function of both the brain stem and higher parts of the brain) and higher brain death (destruction of the cerebral hemispheres alone, with possible retention of brain stem function), there are two types of brain birth (based on their reversal) - brain stem birth at the first appearance of brain waves in lower brain (brain stem) at 6–8 weeks of gestation, and higher brain birth, at the first appearance of brain waves in higher brain (cerebral cortex) at 22–24 weeks of gestation.

so although the ancestors of the gullah come from many places on the coast of west africa, many of the elements that are part of their material culture, food (rice) and crops (indigo) are the same as those held by sierra leoneans. thus, the gullah have the same types and capacities of textiles, fishing, foodways, folktales, vernacular architecture, music, basket making, net making, language, belief systems, pottery and woodcarving that the sierra leoneans. so, dr. hair, a british historian, said the "startling" fact that all texts in african gullah dialect are written in languages spoken in sierra leone. most african texts gathered by historian turner are belonging to the mende language. but dr. cabello also said that an "unusually large proportion" of the four thousand african names and personal loans in the gullah language come from sierra leone. he estimated that twenty-five percent of african names and twenty percent of african vocabulary words came from the sierra leonean languages, principally mende and vai(one of the gullah words of origin not sierra leonean is the same term "gullah", that may derive from angola).
