Description
This collection of studies in conversation analysis offers a unique insight into the organisation and structure of natural language. By examining ordinary talk, researchers reveal previously unnoticed socially organised practices that underpin conversational interactions.
The papers presented here demonstrate how conversation analysts use empirical data to challenge preconceived models and theories. The methodological approach is designed to make conversationalists' methods and structures available for study, revealing the intricate mechanisms of repair systems, laughter, and conversational completions.
