Abstract
The earliest investigations of the neural implementation of language started with
examining patients with various types of disorders and underlying brain damage. The
advent of neuroimaging tools in the twentieth century drastically changed the landscape of
the field of the (cognitive) neuroscience of language, expanding the variety and depth of
research questions one could ask without being confined to specific populations. Today
we have better insights regarding the potential (neuro)cognitive correlates of language
and an improved understanding of the neurocognitive consequences of language(s) in
the mind/brain. And yet the linking hypotheses between neuroscience on the one hand
and language on the other do not offer the level of detail needed to move the field from
correlational to explanatory [1]. Thus, any further work that takes a more fine-grained look
at both language processing and its neurocognitive substrates is warranted and welcome.
