Resumen
It has been proposed that atypical neural oscillations in both the auditory and the visual modalities could explain why
some individuals fail to learn to read and suffer from developmental dyslexia. However, the role of specific oscillatory
mechanisms in reading acquisition is still under debate. In this article, we take a cross-linguistic approach and argue
that both the phonological and orthographic specifics of a language (e.g., linguistic rhythm, orthographic depth) shape
the oscillatory activity thought to contribute to reading development. The proposed theoretical framework should
allow future research to test cross-linguistic hypotheses that will shed light on the heterogeneity of auditory and visual
disorders and their underlying brain dysfunction(s) in developmental dyslexia, and inform clinical practice by helping
us to diagnose dyslexia across languages.
