In [1] (p. 2), we highlight that Deuchar and Stammers [2] postulate that their data does not support Poplack and Meechan's assumption that the distinction between code-switching and borrowing is categorical [3]. We note here, however, that Deuchar and Stammers do not take code-switches and borrowings to be on a continuum. Code-switches and borrowings are distinct on the basis of frequency and degree of integration. Specifically, only the former are low in both frequency and integration (for details, see [2]).
