There are many areas of the brain involved in the process of speaking, reading, writing, listening. Based on what Paul Pierre Broca and Carl Wernicke's found, specific areas of the cortex are related to certain kinds of linguistic ability. Wernicke’s area is essential for comprehension of speech and production.
Besides the biological structures which make us understood, delivered and connected, meaning takes an important role. Meaning should be distinguished by reference and sense that analysis the difference between the meaning of a word within a language and outside the language. It becomes more important when we want to know the meaning of a word in another language or translate some words from our native language to a foreign language.
Getting to know more about terminology, vocabulary can all be classified by the basic units of semantic analysis. The relationships of words can also be used in other language learning process such as Korean. Korean did borrow many Chinese words in the past, and they wrote in adapted Chinese characters came into use. Under this conditions, it may be easier for me to learn Korean and understand the meaning of it.
