Non-literal language processing is jointly supported by the language and theory of mind networks: evidence from a novel meta-analytic fMRI approach
Going beyond the literal meaning of language is key to communicative success. However,
the mechanisms that support non-literal inferences remain debated. Using a novel meta …

Tracking components of bilingual language control in speech production: An fMRI study using functional localizers
When bilingual speakers switch back to speaking in their native language (L1) after having
used their second language (L2), they often experience difficulty in retrieving words in their …

Linguistic inputs must be syntactically parsable to fully engage the language network
Human language comprehension is remarkably robust to ill-formed inputs (eg, word
transpositions). This robustness has led some to argue that syntactic parsing is largely an …
