Do different languages light up different neurons for the same concept ? Do clusters of neurons correspond to a certain thought?

There are a couple of different things to consider. For example, when a child learns a second language, it is easier for them to translate. With time, they take longer to articulate the meaning. Why? The different languages end up more “seperated” in neurological connections with time. Yet still use the same part of the brain. Considering how individuals with Alzheimers are able to retain memory better if they know a second language. They have more neurological connections to a meaning. Like a memory safety net of sorts.
You know how you can forget why you went to the kitchen? (Event Boundary) Next time try to say what you need to get out loud or even write it down. The act of doing so creates a secondary memory to fall back on if you forget.
