“…A network of left-lateralized frontal and temporal brain regions (here referred to as the language network) has been found to respond to written/spoken/signed words and sentences, but not to mental arithmetic, music perception, executive function tasks, action/gesture perception, or computer programming (Amalric & Dehaene, 2019;X. Chen et al, 2021;Fedorenko et al, 2011;Ivanova et al, 2020;Jouravlev et al, 2019;Liu et al, 2020;MacSweeney et al, 2002;Monti et al, 2009Monti et al, , 2012Pritchett et al, 2018). Similarly, investigations of patients with profound disruption of language capacity ( global aphasia) have shown that some of these individuals can solve arithmetic and logic problems, appreciate and create music, and think about others' thoughts in spite of their language impairment (Basso & Capitani, 1985;Luria et al, 1965;Varley et al, 2005;Varley & Siegal, 2000), providing converging evidence that language is subserved by domain-specific cognitive mechanisms.…”
