Reply to comment by TNShadetree in New research shows why we hear “lemon” and not “melon” in processing incoming sounds: our brains “time-stamp” the order of incoming sounds, allowing us to correctly process the words that we hear by giuliomagnifico

Well the really cool thing is that we can tell when something is said first by hearing it and then marking the time and comparing it to other sounds which would have been marked later. Our brain can then read back these time discrepancies in order to determine the order in which we head a sound
