Hypoglossal Nerve: What It Is, Function, Anatomy & Conditions
Your hypoglossal nerve starts at the base of your brain. It travels down your neck and branches out, ending at the base and underside of your tongue . Its name comes from the Greek words “hypo,” which means under, and “glossal,” which means tongue.

Hypoglossal nerve
The rootlets of the hypoglossal nerve arise from the hypoglossal nucleus near the bottom of the brain stem. The hypoglossal nerve carries lower motor neurons that synapse with upper motor neurons at the hypoglossal nucleus.
