We propose in this paper the description of a new dataset aiming at implementing EEG experiments on sentence processing. The resource contains a set of idiomatic sentences together with the corresponding non-idiomatic control sentences. Moreover, in order to study different ERP effects for idiom processing, we also introduce in this original material controlled syntactic violations. As an application, we briefly present an EEG experiment and its results.
