  • Production and understanding of change‐of‐state tokens in English talk‐in‐interaction among L1 and L2 speakers

    Open Access•Min-Chang Sung, Sun-Young Oh•ARTICLE•Pragmatics Quarterly Publication…•2025

    This study investigates the production and understanding of change-of-state tokens like oh and ah in English conversations among one L1 speaker and three L2 speakers. Using conversation analysis, it examines how these speakers do interactional work to achieve shared understanding through these tokens. The L1 speaker produces oh to signal changes of state ( Heritage 1984 ), which L2 speakers respond to appropriately. On the other hand, the L2 spea…

  • Developing L2 turn-taking with ChatGPT: A longitudinal conversation analytic study

    Open Access•Min Gyeong Choi, Sun-Young Oh•ARTICLE•System•2025•References: 8

    This conversation analytic study examines how a Korean EFL learner’s turn-taking evolved through 30 role-play sessions with ChatGPT-4 over three months. Adopting a hybrid design that integrates conversation analysis with quantitative metrics, the research tracks systematic changes in turn complexity, diversity, design, and timing across three developmental phases. The findings demonstrate that while sustained interaction with the AI chatbot facil…

  • Development of clausal and phrasal complexity in L2 writing: A case of argumentative essays of Korean college students

    Open Access•Narae Seo, Sun-Young Oh•ARTICLE•English for Specific Purposes•2024

    This study aims to estimate the developmental trajectory of grammatical complexity for L2 writers by investigating the extent to which clausal and phrasal complexity is associated with L2 writing proficiency. The corpus used in this study contained 234 argumentative essays of first-year Korean college students at three proficiency levels. The five clausal and four phrasal features were extracted from the tagged corpus to count the frequency of ea…

  • Overt reference to speaker and recipient in Korean

    Open Access•Sun-Young Oh•ARTICLE•Discourse Studies•2007•Cited by: 14•References: 6

    In Korean, reference forms can be omitted so long as the referent can be understood by the interlocutor(s); speaker/recipient reference terms are most readily omitted because they are easily retrievable from the physical interactional context. The current study represents the first attempt to examine specifically when and why Korean speakers do use an overt reference form in referring to themselves or their recipients even when reference can be u…

  • English zero anaphora as an interactional resource II

    Open Access•Sun-Young Oh•ARTICLE•Discourse Studies•2006•Cited by: 11•References: 12

    This article follows up a previous study (Oh, 2005), which has investigated English speakers’ practices of employing zero anaphora (or omission of an overt reference term) in ordinary conversations, with special reference to the kind of interactional work that they accomplish by the practice. The findings of Oh (2005) have demonstrated that unlike previously-held assumptions, zero anaphora may be systematically deployed by English speakers in ord…

    This study investigates English speakers' practices of employing zero anaphora (or omission of an overt reference term) in ordinary conversations, with special reference to the kind of interactional work that they accomplish by the practice. The findings demonstrate that unlike previously held assumptions, zero anaphora may be systematically deployed by English speakers to achieve certain interactional functions, for example, marking the current …

  • Two Types of Input Modification and EFL Reading Comprehension: Simplification versus Elaboration

    Sun-Young Oh•ARTICLE•TESOL Quarterly•2001•Cited by: 4

    This study investigates the relative effects of two types of input modification—simplification and elaboration—on Korean high school students' EFL reading comprehension. Six English reading passages in one of three forms—(a) baseline, (b) simplified, or (c) elaborated—were presented to 180 students, who were divided into two proficiency levels (i.e., high proficiency and low proficiency). Comprehension was assessed by an 18-item multiple-choice t…
