Anjeneral, prete fèt nan diksyonè a, pandan y ap kòd-oblije chanje ki fèt nan swa sentaks nivo oswa espresyon an-konstriksyon nivo.[1][2][3] La ekivalans contrainte predi ke chanjeman yo rive sèlman nan pwen kote estrikti sifas yo nan lang yo kowenside, oswa ant matematik eleman yo ke yo ap nòmalman yo te bay lòd nan menm fason an, pa chak moun gramè.[32] Pou egzanp, fraz la: "mwen renmen ou porque eres simpático" ("mwen renmen ou paske ou se bon"), se gen dwa paske li te obeyi la syntactic règleman yo nan tou de panyòl ak angle.[34] Ka tankou non an fraz la casa blan ak an blanca kay yo te regle paske la konbinezon yo ungrammatical nan omwen youn nan lang yo patisipe.

Generally, borrowing occurs in the lexicon, while code-switching occurs at either the syntax level or the utterance-construction level.[1][2][3] The equivalence constraint predicts that switches occur only at points where the surface structures of the languages coincide, or between sentence elements that are normally ordered in the same way by each individual grammar.[32] For example, the sentence: "I like you porque eres simpático" ("I like you because you are nice") is allowed because it obeys the syntactic rules of both Spanish and English.[34] Cases like the noun phrases the casa white and the blanca house are ruled out because the combinations are ungrammatical in at least one of the languages involved.
