Hi xavkrty,

Human Cerebrum is responsible for emotions, intellect, language, memory, etc. Having a large cerebrum relative to the entire brain means that we have a large capacity for its functions.

This Wikipedia article is a good place to start learning about Cerebrum and the human brain.

Should you have any further questions, ask away!
