Does anyone have an answer as to WHY language ability initially develops in
the left hemispere, without exception? The only answer I have been able to
extract from my professors is "because it's designed that way". So WHY is it
designd that way???? What special properties does the left side possess that
are not present in the right?
( I am also aware that adults with right hemisphere
language development have this due to some kind of left hemisphere traumatic
brain injury during childhood or adolescence, but I am told all language
initially is concieved in the left hemi..)
Thanks for any input...
