Abstract
⺠We report a consistent fronto-temporal network for figurative language processing. ⺠No general RH advantage for metaphor processing could be found. ⺠Idiom and metaphor processing shared activations in left frontotemporal regions. ⺠Irony/sarcasm processing activated regions associated with theory of mind.
