这项研究为触发语码转换提供了进一步的证据。在荷兰-英格兰双语者的自然言语中，语码转换更常直接发生在同源词（或“触发词”）旁边，而不是其他地方。来自类型学相关的同源语言的证据扩展了先前关于类型学不相关的语言之间触发的证据。由于触发词的比例很大，数据可以深入了解哪些词可以触发语码转换、专有名词、具有良好和中等形式重叠的同源实词以及同源虚词都诱发语码转换。此外，这项研究将触发语码转换的证据从语码转换相对较少的语音扩展到语码转换密度较高的语音。与早期的工作相比，不仅直接在触发词之后的单词，而且直接在触发词之前的单词都比其他单词更频繁地进行语码转换，这表明触发语码转换的范围取决于触发词和语音中语码转换的频率。
This study shows further evidence for triggered codeswitching. In natural speech from a Dutch-England bilingual, codeswitches occurred more often directly next to a cognate (or "trigger word") than elsewhere. This evidence from typologically related, cognate languages extends previous evidence for triggering between typologically unrelated languages. With then large proportion of trigger words, the data provide insight into which words can trigger codeswitches, proper nouns, cognate content words with good and moderate form overlap, and cognate function words all induced codeswitching Further, this study extends the evidence for triggered codeswitching from speech with relatively little codeswitching to speech with a high codeswitching density. In contrast with earlier work, not only words directly following a trigger word but also words directly preceding one were codeswitched more often than other words, suggesting that the scope of triggered codeswitching depends on the frequency of trigger words and of codeswitches in the speech.
