ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Language module

Okay, so you know how we talk to each other in words? We use language to communicate and understand what others are saying.

Now, imagine there is a part of our brain that helps us learn and use language. That part is called the language module.

The language module is like a special tool that helps us understand and use words. It helps us learn new words and grammar rules, and it also helps us remember the words we already know.

Just like how we need to take care of our hands and feet, we need to take care of our language module by reading, speaking, and listening to different types of language.

So, think of the language module as a cool machine in your brain that helps you talk and understand. And the more you use it, the better it gets!
