Conversational Structures Ex.3

Conversational Structures Ex.3

In each of the following sequences, a first action – highlighted in gray – is met with some kind of delay in response from its recipient.

For each case, identify (i) the first action, (ii) the form that the delay takes and (iii) its consequences for subsequent conduct and for the development of the sequence. Where possible and relevant, describe the ways in which the sequence outcome is one that sustains or reinforces solidarity and affiliation between the speakers.

This exercise is due on TurnItIn on FridayNovember 6th.

We remind you that, in accordance with UCLA regulations, you may discuss your responses to these questions but you may not share files and your response must be your own.
