Quick answers
Where should I start with Language?
Read Overview → Anatomy → Function, then use compare rails.
Is this page advice for Language?
Educational atlas — not a diagnosis, treatment plan, or medical advice.
What does the local lens add?
It names everyday desks for Cognition before English norms look universal.
Are the scores a ranking of Language?
No — editorial 0–100 browsing aids inside this atlas only.
How do I compare Language to neighbours?
Use related cards and best-of / quiz rails after the first three chapters.
Which chapter is densest?
Anatomy and Function carry mechanisms; skim Overview first.
Open questions still driving Language research.
Tech and ethics sit beside mechanism — progress is not only scanners.
