How brain predicts speech

Neuroscientists explained how the brain predicts upcoming words and process speech

Neuroscientist at Newcastle University allow monkeys and humans to listen to sequences of spoken word from a make-up language.

Monkeys and humans were able to learn the relationship between the spoken sounds in the sequences.

Neural responses from the auditory cortex in human and monkey shows how neurons responded to speech and sounds.

The mechanism for speech in human brain works like predictive text on mobile phone, this shows what happened when brain failed to make fundamental predictions.

Apps for brain training

Increase in age decrease the cognitive functions of human brain, being mentally active at old age can maintain cognitive functioning of the brain.

Brain can be trained by learning something new, playing games and solving puzzles.

Studies suggested brain training apps for mental stimulation at old age, regular brain training improves brain processing speed and memory.

 Some of the best brain training apps
• Luminosity - It is used by many people across the world, it has fun games designed to train speed, memory, flexible, attention and problem-solving.

•Elevate - This app is created to develop mathematics and speaking skills, It also improves attention, memory and processing speed.

•Peak - It improves concentration, memory, problem-solving and language.
