Conversation Analysis and Dyads, Triads, and More
In early sociological work Simmel (1902) first approached the relationship between group size and the possibility of different kinds of affiliation and opposition. Later, Goffman (e.g. 1961) explored how in groups of varying size diverse sorts and degrees of participation are possible. Seminal to later conversation analytic (CA) research has been Goffman's concept of “situation” or “participation framework” as “an environment of mutual moni‐torin…
An investigation of how 100 articles in the Journal of Pragmatics treat transcripts of English and non-English languages
Repairing reference
Languages provide speakers with resources for both referencing and repairing. While referencing is crucial for sustaining intersubjectivity, repairing is crucial for re-establishing intersubjectivity (Auer 1984; Schegloff 1992a; Schegloff et al. 1977). This chapter describes a repair-initiation action that claims that a particular aspect of the prior turn presents "trouble" for its speaker (e.g., understanding the prior turn; for a review of "rep…
Wh-interrogative formats used for questioning and beyond
This article contributes to a critical discussion of how `question' and `questioning' may be defined in terms of form and function by analyzing the interactional usage of two apparently synonymous `question' words, German warum ( why) and wieso ( why) and their common English translation why. Warum and why are employed for two different interactional achievements. Wieso marks the utterance as an information request. In this respect, it is affilia…

Schisming
This article examines schisming, a phenomenon that relates to how the number of members in a group is related to the interaction of the group. More specifically, schisming is the observation that in a conversation with at least four participants, the conversation may systematically split into two or more smaller conversations. In the data examined here, schisming is induced when, during a conversation, one person introduces a turn oriented to a s…
Some interactional achievements of other-initiated repair in multiperson conversation
Context-sensitivity in conversation
Just as turn-taking has been found to be both context-free and context-sensitive (Sacks, Schegloff & Jefferson 1974), the organization of repair is also shown here to be both context-free and context-sensitive. In a comparison of American and German conversation, repair can be shown to be context-free in that, basically, the same mechanism can be found across these two languages. However, repair is also sensitive to the linguistic inventory of a …
