The construction of meaning is the result of a highly complex cognitive processing. The textual data are associated with traces of information from multiple sources, enabling previous experience for understanding. This article aims to comment on this subject according to the connectionist paradigm, and report the results obtained in research with 82 subjects of Chemistry (GE) and Electronics (GC), which were applied to two tests: a) T1 a text fragment Oxygen Demand (Biochemical), b) T2 the English translation of T1. Considering that prior knowledge of content favors the reading comprehension of technical texts in English, we have established four specifi c hypotheses: 1) GE has higher average performance in T1 in relation to CG; 2) GE has higher average performance in T2 in relation to CG; 3) GE presents higher average performance in T2 in relation to T1; 4) GC has higher average performance in T2 in relation to T1. Therefore, the results indicated partial statistical superiority of the GE on the GC (p = 0.086).
