About

Language comprehension is the cognitive process and academic field concerned with how individuals derive meaning from spoken, written, or signed language. This research area investigates the psychological, neural, and computational mechanisms underlying the processing of linguistic input, the construction of semantic and syntactic representations, and the integration of new information with existing knowledge structures, holding significant importance for understanding human communication, cognition, and language-related disorders.
