The aim of the paper is to investigate the nature of word order errors in the Hungarian sentences of Romanian-Hungarian bilinguals. I argue that the data provide support in favour of the Interface Hypothesis (Sorace and Filiaci 2006, Sorace 2011) that predicts vulnerability at the interface between syntax and discourse. The paper tests the hypothesis according to which Romanian-Hungarian bilinguals commit word order errors that can be explained by conflicting discourse rules in the two languages.
