In this article the triggering hypothesis for code-switching proposed by Michael Clyne is discussed and tested. According to this hypothesis, cognates can facilitate code-switching of directly preceding or following words. It is argued that the triggering hypothesis in its original form is incompatible with language production models, as it assumes that language choice takes place at the surface structure of utterances, while in bilingual production models language choice takes place along with lemma selection. An adjusted version of the triggering hypothesis is proposed in which triggering takes place during lemma selection and the scope of triggering is extended to basic units in language production. Data from a Dutch-Moroccan Arabic corpus are used for a statistical test of the original and the adjusted triggering theory. The codes witching patterns found in the data support part of the original triggering hypothesis, but they are best explained by the adjusted triggering theory.
