| Research Abstract |
This study explored the conditions under which an utterance was interpreted as an ironical expression, not as a literal expression. This study also examined how different the fMRI neural responses in each case of literal and ironical interpretations of utterances. The results of the experiments suggest that a nonliteral meaning of an utterance and a communicative connotation of the utterance are separable products from the different neural networks in the brain.
