Wernicke's area (/ËvÉÉrnáµ»kÉ/ or /ËvÉÉrnáµ»ki/; German: [ËvÉÊnÉªkÉ]), also called Wernicke's speech area, is one of the two parts of the cerebral cortex linked, since the late nineteenth century, to speech (the other is Broca's area).
Wernicke's area is an important part of the brain that is involved with helping us to understand spoken language. This lesson will cover where Wernicke's area is located in the brain, how it works, and a little bit about how it was discovered.
