Despite the rapid advancement in the field of code-switching in the past 20 years, research up to date has not thoroughlyexamined code-switching between Slavic languages and English. The semantic and syntactic aspects of code-switchingof Bulgarian-English bilinguals have previously been overlooked. This research project will expand on the literature onprocessing and code-switching by examining the differences between habitual and non-habitual Bulgarian-English codeswitchers and the neurological differences in the two groups. Investigating the reasons behind the frequency of codeswitching of different bilinguals would explain why some code-switch more than others, and whether there are majordifferences in the processing of the two groups. There will be two stages to the data collection. In the first, data fromBulgarian-English bilinguals will be collected through a questionnaire looking at the background, language knowledge,sociolinguistic context, and attitudes of the bilinguals. Afterwards, EEG recordings will be made of the processing ofcode-switched sentences when bilinguals are exposed to various language tasks, such as a sentence production task.The collected data will be statistically analysed using ANOVA.

尽管在过去的20年里，语码转换研究取得了长足的进步，但迄今为止的研究还没有对斯拉夫语和英语之间的语码转换进行彻底的研究。语码转换在语义和句法方面的研究一直被忽视。本研究项目将通过考察习惯性和非习惯性的阿拉伯语-英语语码转换者之间的差异以及两组人的神经差异来扩展关于加工和语码转换的文献。研究不同双语者语码转换频率的原因可以解释为什么有些双语者的语码转换频率高于其他双语者，以及两组双语者在语码转换过程中是否存在显著差异。数据收集将分为两个阶段。首先，通过问卷调查的方式收集了澳大利亚-英国双语者的数据，调查内容包括背景、语言知识、社会语言学背景和双语者的态度。然后，当双语者被暴露于各种语言任务（如句子产生任务）时，将对代码转换句子的处理进行EEG记录，并使用ANOVA对收集的数据进行统计分析。
