It has been suggested that structural composition of mixed lanuages and the linguistic processes through which they emerge are to some extent predictable, and they therefore constitute a language "type" (e.g., Bakker and Mous, 1994b; Bakker and Muysken, 1995). This view ischallenged here. Instead, it is argued that the compartmentalisation of structures observed in mixed languages (i.e., the fact that certain structural categories are derived from one "parent" language, others from another) is the result of the cumulative effect of different contact mechanism. These mechenism are defined in terms of the cognitive and communicative motivations that lead speakers to kodel certain functions of language on an alternative linguistic system; each mechanism will typically affect perticular functional of relevant processes are identified: lexical re-orientation, selective replication, convergence, and categorial fusion. Different combinations of processes render different outcomes, hence the diversity of mixed languages as regards their structure, function, and development.
