Evidence from cross-linguistic priming suggests that bilinguals can share their
representations of constructions that occur in both languages. Some studies suggest that
such sharing occurs only when the constructions involve identical syntactic categories and
word order, thereby supporting a restricted shared-structure account of bilingual linguistic
representation. But other studies suggest that such exact repetition is not necessary for
priming. To address this question, we conducted an experiment in which bilingual speakers …
