Top Highlights
Left ventral premotor cortex was sensitive to entropy of the probability distribution of the upcoming word, as has been found before for non-language stimuli.
Similarly, an important node in the semantic brain network, the left inferior parietal lobule (“angular gyrus”), also showed sensitivity to entropy
activations in the left middle frontal and right inferior frontal cortex, that were also sensitive to entropy, these are areas that most likely exhibit a top-down influence related to predictability of the upcoming word, onto other areas in the language network
