Nope. We’ve got two different parts of our brain for language. One for processing kanguage and one fir speaking it. Brocca’s area is all about speaking and communicating. Wernicke’s area is all about understanding speech.

It doesn’t matter the language, sign language included, speaking “lights up” Brocca’s area while listening “lights up” Wernicke’s area.
