Abstract
One of the most prime examples of a multidisciplinary field, Cognitive Linguistics explores language as a cognitive mechanism in the coding and transformation of information. On the other hand, Neurolinguistics, combining two major sciences and studying the functional course of consciousness, deals with cognitive processes and the relationship between the brain and them. In the scientific development of its history, a number of different research areas related to the study of the functionality of the brain hemispheres are noteworthy. The different functions in the brain mechanism benefit from cognition, concepts, conceptspheres, and other necessary elements. Cognitive linguistics dealing with the illumination of these functions tries to highlight the aspects of language activity, seeing as how one of the important keys to reflecting the programmed mechanism of the brain is language-related activities. The main purpose of the research is to determine the relationship between the functionality of the language phenomenon and the brain mechanism.
