Code-switching is generally dispreferred at points of non-shared word order across a bilingual's two languages. In priming studies, this dispreference persists even following exposure to a code-switched non-shared-word-order utterance. The present study delves deeper into the scope of code-switching priming by investigating whether lexical repetition across target and prime, a factor known to boost structural priming, can increase code-switching at points of word order divergence. Afrikaans–English bilinguals (n=46) heard prime sentences in which word order, lexical repetition, and switch position were manipulated and subsequently produced code-switched picture descriptions. The results show that lexical repetition boosts the priming of code-switching in a non-shared word order. The findings demonstrate that code-switching in production is affected by a dynamic interplay between factors both language-internal (i.e., word order) and language-external (i.e., priming, and specifically lexical repetition).

在双语者的两种语言之间的非共享词序点上，语码转换通常是不受欢迎的。在启动研究中，即使在暴露于语码转换的非共享词序话语之后，这种不偏好仍然持续存在。本研究通过调查跨目标和素数的词汇重复（已知促进结构启动的因素）是否可以增加词序分歧点的语码转换，更深入地探讨了语码转换启动的范围。南非荷兰语-英语双语者 ( n=46）听到主要句子，其中词序、词汇重复和转换位置被操纵，并随后产生了代码转换的图片描述。结果表明，词汇重复促进了非共享词序中语码转换的启动。研究结果表明，生产中的语码转换受到语言内部（即词序）和语言外部（即启动，特别是词汇重复）因素之间动态相互作用的影响。
