There is no single area that focuses on language in the brain. People rely on many areas of the brain to understand a sentence. The type of grammar used will activate the needed area of the brain.  This will process it and make sense of what is said.  Some languages (like English) rely on word order. This shows how parts of the sentence relate. Other languages (like Spanish) rely on inflections. Inflections are suffixes put at the end of words. Word order can change to show how subject and object relate. American Sign Language (ASL) can use both ways to show how sentence parts relate. ASL shows that the brain uses different regions to understand sentences. A signer can sign words to show the sentence order.  A signer can use body movement to show inflections. While lying in MRI machines, native signers watched videos of sentences being signed.  These machines monitored their brain activity when figuring out sentences.  The study showed that two separate areas of the brain understand the sentences.  One area understands word order sentences.  The other area understands inflection sentences.  People use different parts of the brain to understand different grammar.  The frontal cortex lets people put information in order.  This part of the brain is used for word order.  People use parts of the temporal lobe to divide information into parts.  This part of the brain is used for inflection.  The brain uses different areas that are used for processing to understand language.  This could help scientists learn how to teach language to patients with brain damage.
