| summary | Temporal expectations improve our perception and guide most of our behaviors. Language is
predominantly conveyed through speech which is inherently a temporal stimulation. However, and
despite the ubiquitous relevance of correctly orienting attention in time, we know little about how this
ability influences language learning. In this talk, I will review developmental data and neuroimaging
evidence in adults indicating how the ability to know what to expect at the correct time is a core
component of language learning. In particular, I will illustrate how different aspects of temporal
orienting have a determinant role on word segmentation and rule learning. The left frontoparietal
system involved in temporal orienting has a clear anatomical overlap with the language network. Is
this a pure coincidence? I will argue that it is not, and the intimate relation with temporal orienting
abilities is essential to understand language learning. |
