Circumstantial language in individuals with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is clinically identifiable and describes a pedantic, repetitive, and overly detailed output style [1–3]. This can be distinguished from tangentiality which is characterised by meandering and often irrelevant content. TLE is frequently associated with cognitive-linguistic impairments [4] which, in current practice, are most commonly demonstrated on neuropsychological examination at a single-word level, such as on tasks of confrontation naming [5,6].
