I don't think there's reason to believe both halves have a monologue, is there? Experience, yes, but doesn't only one half do language?

- ggm 2y agoSo if like me you have an interior dialogue, which is speaking and which is listening or is it the same one? I do not ascribe the speaker or listener to a lobe, but whatever the language and comprehension centre(s) is(are), it can do both at the same time.
- furyofantares 2y agoSame half. My understanding is that in split brain patients, it looks like the one half has extremely limited ability to parse language and no ability to create it.

- furyofantares 2y agoThat all supports what I said, right? If almost everyone has almost all of their language functionality lateralized to one side of the brain then you'd have at most one inner monologue. (At least) two minds: yes. Two inner monologues: no.
