| Abstract | A general finding in English seems to be that verbs are represented in left prefrontal region and nouns in temporal-occipital regions. Functional MRI studies with Chinese, however, have indicated that Chinese nouns and verbs activate a wide range of overlapping brain areas, without a significant difference. In this paper I will report on our recent fMRI findings that in Chinese-English bilinguals, Chinese nouns and verbs activate a common neuroanatomical circuit, whereas English nouns and verbs provoke different neural networks weighted by word category. Our findings agree with the recent proposal that language experience shapes neural systems of reading and speaking. |
