French scientist Paul Broca's theory of the region of our brains.
Paul Broca discovered that a region of our brains used for speech processing is usually located on one side. Language is a complex process, and the move to one hemisphere probably helps the brain deal with it more efficiently. In 1861 he announced his discovery of the seats of articulate speech in the left frontal region of the brain since known as the convolution of Broca.

Why left-hand face disrespect?
People in this world believe that an itchy left hand indicates you will lose money and an itchy right hand, you will receive money. Left-handed children have not performed as well as right-handed children at school. Mental disorders are said to be common among left-handed people. Even language hates lefties. To be correct is to be right… and correct is also a word that comes from “right”.
Unfortunately, lefties have received a lot of negative attention throughout history in many countries. A long time ago, some places required that people use their right hand for handling food, greeting people, and eating. The left hand was reserved for using the bathroom and other hygienic purposes. These regulations were enforced on everyone whether or not they were right-handed. So, a person’s left hand was eventually considered dirty. Religion also plays a significant role in the mistreatment of left-handed people. Because of this, children have often been forced to use their right hand for writing and various other activities despite being left-dominant. Unsurprisingly, this can harm the child. Dyslexia, learning disorders, and speech impediments can result from converting a person to right-handedness. In fact, many countries still try and change people’s natural constitutions. For instance, eating with your left hand is considered disrespectful in Indonesia and India. Other countries associate lefties with bad luck.
Why did the left-hander force to do work with your right hand?
Another reason for this could be result of necessity. Items like scissors, ballpoint pens, and spiral notebooks are all made for right-handed people. So, left-handers have had to learn to cope by using their right hands. These are some examples, red poppies are a dime a dozen.
