The current Chinese network seems to largely resemble the auditory semantic network for alphabetic languages but with features specific to Chinese. While the left inferior parietal lobule in the dorsal stream may have little involvement in the listening comprehension of Chinese sentences, the ventral neural stream via the temporal cortex appears to be more emphasized. The current findings deepen our understanding of how the semantic nature of spoken Chinese sentences influences the neural mechanism engaged.
