The Mandarin rising-intoned Éi (诶) particle in third position
This paper offers an analysis of rising-intoned éi in Mandarin conversation, specifically as it is produced in the wake of question-answer sequences. Examining the particle’s use both as a stand-alone unit implementing its own action, and as a preface to additional turn components and the actions thereby implemented, we argue that éi in third position is best conceived of as a change-of-state token marking an epistemic discrepancy. Paralleling wh…

The DIG Mandarin Conversations (DMC) Corpus
This paper introduces the DMC Corpus – a newly collected dataset of 150 mundane cell phone calls from Mainland China in Mandarin Chinese (audio and detailed transcripts) – which is now publicly available for use in research and teaching. In this report, we first describe the constitution and current contents of the DMC Corpus, as well as instructions for access. Additional calls will be added periodically to the Corpus, and so the quantitative ov…

The burden of cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases due to hepatitis B in children and adolescents
Background: The global burden of cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases due to hepatitis B (collectively referred to as hepatitis B-associated cirrhosis in this paper) in children and adolescents must be understood and investigated. Methods: Data were extracted from the GBD database, and calculations were performed at global, regional, and national level. We calculate the incidence, prevalence, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and a…
A participatory e-planning model in the urban renewal of China
While collaborative planning has gained popularity in addressing conflicts of interest in urban renewal, the development of information communication technologies has provided creative tools in participatory planning. To accommodate the needs of participatory e-planning, we designed a digital collaborative platform composed of four modules to establish a framework for all stakeholders to participate in the urban renewal process in China. By takin…
Power plays in action formation
Using conversation analysis as its research method, this article investigates the interactional function of the particle ba in Mandarin Chinese conversation. It is argued that ba is frequently employed by its speakers to adjust deontic gradients in action sequences of directives in mundane conversation besides its function of adjusting epistemic gradients in certain action sequences. The present study claims that the agent and beneficiary of futu…
Inference-embedded yes/no interrogatives in Mandarin Chinese conversation
In talk-in-interaction, the details of the design of a yes/no interrogative (YNI) index the speaker’s epistemic stance about the issue in question. Adopting conversation analysis as the research method, the present study examines the interactional deployment of inference-embedded YNIs in Mandarin Chinese. The analysis of the turn designs and sequential environments of these interrogatives, as well as the design of the responses to them, indicates…

Generic solicitude in sequence-initial position as a practice for pre-closing proposals in Mandarin telephone calls
Based on 200 mundane Mandarin Chinese telephone calls, this article describes the composition of generic solicitude in sequence-initial position in the closing section of telephone calls. Two types of generic solicitude are found, namely, stand-alone generic solicitude and composite generic solicitude. Stand-alone generic solicitudes are found in single unit turns and usually occur in imperatives like Adj + dianr + V. The recipients frequently ac…
Breaking the land monopoly
Addressing information discrepancies in conversation
Couples bickering
This is an investigation into conflict and discord in conversations between couples (heterosexual partners) in ordinary households in mainland China. Based on a corpus of face-to-face and telephone conversations in Mandarin, our analysis shows that participants’ arguments are ‘kept under control’ through a variety of communicative (linguistic) practices that in a variety of ways mitigate or reduce the force of their arguments. Prominent among tho…
Inviting in Mandarin
Managing Awkward, Sensitive, or Delicate Topics in (Chinese) Radio Medical Consultations
This study, using conversation analysis as the research methodology, probes into the use of nage (literally “that”) as a practice of managing awkward, sensitive, or delicate issues in radio phone-in medical consultations about sex-related problems. Through sequential manipulation and turn manipulation, the caller uses stand-alone nage, either as a pronoun referring to a sex organ or sex-related problem or as a filler, to delay or to build up to t…
The calculability of communicative intentions through pragmatic reasoning
We provide conceptual and empirical support for the core tenet in pragmatic theory that speakers make their communicative intention about the pragmatic meaning of their utterances recognizable to hearers. First, we attribute skepticism about this tenet to conceptualizing communicative intentions as private cognitive states that hearers cannot reliably discern. We show it is more parsimonious to conceptualize communicative intention as arising fro…
