Experimental design. (A) Within-language discrimination (1) was performed for all pairwise comparisons in English and Dutch. Across-language generalization (2) was performed across translational equivalent words in the other language. Both generalization directions were performed, from English to Dutch and from Dutch to English. (B) Runs, blocks organization along the EEG session. Only 3 runs out of 8 runs are depicted for illustration. Each run (7 min) was composed by two blocks (English and Dutch). (C) Within each block, a jittered interval (ITI) of 3.7–4.3 s separates the presentation of the words. The black vertical arrow represents a response from the subjects to detect a non-animal word (e.g., bike).
