Wernicke's area is responsible for language comprehension, so damage to this area would result in difficulty understanding spoken language, as seen in Monique's case. The cerebellum is involved in motor coordination, Broca's area is responsible for language production, and the right parietal lobe is involved in spatial awareness and attention.
