One approach to comparing the neural bases of language and music is through the use of song, which is a unique and ecological combination of these two cognitive domains. In song, language and music are merged into one acoustic signal with two salient dimensions. By manipulating either the linguistic or musical dimensions (or both) of song and studying their relationships, it is possible to gain important information about the neural networks underlying language and music cognition. We will present a brief review followed by recent behavioral, electrophysiological, and neuroimaging studies concerned with the functional and structural relationships of music and language. These results, together with the previous studies in the field, help understanding whether the different levels of music and language processing are independent or interactive.
一种比较语言和音乐神经基础的方法是通过歌曲的运用，歌曲是这两个认知领域独特的、符合生态的结合体。在歌曲中，语言和音乐融合为一个具有两个显著维度的声学信号。通过操控歌曲的语言维度或音乐维度（或两者皆操控）并研究它们之间的关系，有可能获得关于语言和音乐认知背后神经网络的重要信息。我们将先进行简要综述，随后介绍近期有关音乐和语言功能及结构关系的行为学、电生理学和神经影像学研究。这些结果，连同该领域之前的研究，有助于理解音乐和语言处理的不同层面是相互独立还是相互作用的。
