Our results of (1) unspecific pre-/motor effects similarly induced in both hemispheres, and (2) a specific focus of TMS susceptibility in the language-dominant hemisphere render any substantial contribution of nonlanguage-specific effects in TMS language mapping of the inferior frontal junction area highly unlikely.
