A mother's voice helps trigger parts of her baby's brain which is in charge for language learning.

Researchers at the University of Montreal through their studies showed their findings after performing electrical recordings on the infants within 24 hours of their birth.

The brain signals released showed that while the infants didn’t react on other women's voices, only the mother's sound seemingly help trigger the voice recognition in various regions of brains, according to a University of Montreal statement.

'This is exciting research that proves for the first time that the newborn's brain responds strongly to the mother's voice... that the mother's voice is special to babies," explained psychologist Maryse Lassonde at Montreal.

Brain studies had not been done before on such young participants. Application of electrodes on the heads (of a group of babies) during their sleep was put, stated Lassonde. And later the mother was asked the mother to make the short 'A' vowel sound -- like in the French word 'allo', which was later repeated by a female nurse who brought the baby to the lab.

It was observed that when the mother spoke, the scans came out to be prominent showing clear reactions in the left-hemisphere of the brain, and in specific the proper language processing and motor skills circuit.
