"Commingling" involves any combination of separate property with community property; a related concept, "transmutation," generally involves re-titling. An explanation of both concepts and how they work is set out at http://willicklawgroup.com/property-rights-and-division/. And the community property laws apply to all kinds of property -- real, personal, intangible and inchoate. If the posted explanation is not sufficient, you really should consult with a family law specialist.
