The study of the brains’ oscillatory activity has been a standard technique to gain insights into human neurocognition for a relatively long time. However, as a complementary analysis to ERPs, only very recently has it been utilized to study bilingualism and its neural underpinnings. Here, we provide a theoretical and methodological starter for scientists in the (psycho)linguistics and neurocognition of bilingualism field(s) to understand the bases and applications of this analytical tool. Towards this goal, we provide a description of the characteristics of the human neural (and its oscillatory) signal, followed by an in-depth description of various types of EEG oscillatory analyses, supplemented by figures and relevant examples. We then utilize the scant, yet emergent, literature on neural oscillations and bilingualism to highlight the potential of how analyzing neural oscillations can advance our understanding of the (psycho)linguistic and neurocognitive understanding of bilingualism.

驾驭（脑）波！使用神经振荡为双语研究提供信息

长期以来，对大脑振荡活动的研究一直是深入了解人类神经认知的标准技术。然而，作为对 ERP 的补充分析，直到最近它才被用于研究双语及其神经基础。在这里，我们为双语领域的（心理）语言学和神经认知领域的科学家提供了一个理论和方法论的开端，以了解该分析工具的基础和应用。为实现这一目标，我们描述了人类神经（及其振荡）信号的特征，然后深入描述了各种类型的 EEG 振荡分析，并辅以图表和相关示例。然后我们利用少量但紧急的，
