When multiple codes freely alternate in a linguistic event, they may fuse somewhat as speakers transfer lexical material from one language to another, innovating a code that is different from either of its progenitors. This is code-mixing, which typically occurs in bilingualism contexts and affects single words or phrases. Here is an example that mixes Spanish and English to affirm that you can't eat meat every day (Di Sciullo et al. 1985): Uno no podia comer carne every day.
