Chinese as an ideogram is different from phonetic writing system, and the children who use Chinese may not exist reading disorder problem. Chinese word Semantic processing provides a wealth of experimental material for the study of language processing differences, comparing the semantic processing mechanism of brain of dyslexia children in Chinese and English helps to further clarify the common defects of dyslexia children between different languages. Discovering the processing differences between real words and pseudo-words is important for understanding the reading disturbances in dyslexia. The differences between the dyslexic and control groups were mainly in the N130, RP, N400, and P600 components. The results suggest that Chinese dyslexic children have semantic processing defects.
