Abstract: Language processes are continuous and highly complex which involve multiple levels of analysis. The new technique of ERP provides a temporal resolution of milliseconds and multiple recording dimensions. Then it can measure language processing continuously, and also have specific indicators to different level analysis. This paper emphasizes on the introduction of these components such as the component of N200 related with phonological processing, RP and N400 related with semantic processing, and LAN and P600 related to syntactic analysis.

Key words: ERP, phonological processing, semantic processing, syntactic processing
