The “Dictionary” in the Brain

Description
Wernicke’s area contains the auditory entries of words; the meanings are contained as memories in the sensory association areas. Black arrows represent comprehension of words—the activation of memories that correspond to a word’s meaning. Red arrows represent translation of thoughts or perceptions into words.
