The Syntax and Semantics of Reorganized Language and its Neuronal Architecture
Language is generally lateralized to the left hemisphere, however, children with early damage in the left hemisphere are able to reorganize language in the right hemisphere. Little work has been done on the characterization of this 'reorganized language' (RS) at any level of linguistic description. This project aimed to investigate and describe reorganized language, making reference to linguistic hypotheses and methods, and thus to contribute towards the study of adaptivity in language. Imaging procedures were used to localize language function in the brain.
