Grey matter correlates of Analysis 1 — overall object naming and Analysis 3a — a ‘shared’ language component. Age, gender, years of education, stroke–scan interval, stroke–screen interval and general cognitive state indices (orientation scores) were entered as covariates in both analyses.

Note: the first column under each analysis reports the size (number of voxels) of each of the clusters with amplitude of voxels surviving Z = 2.32 (uncorrected). In each cluster, the MNI coordinates (x, y, z) and the peak reliability in brackets (Z) are reported. Acronyms: IFG — inferior frontal gyrus; STG — superior temporal gyrus.

^**p < 0.05 FWE-corrected significant at cluster level.
