Abstract This paper reviews the research on development of second language (L2) interactional competence. We first provide an overview historical advancements in L2 learning that have occasioned current interest this topic and discuss some methodological issues involved developmental investigations kind. then review a number recent empirical studies use micro‐analysis naturally occurring social interaction data to investigate how speakers develop their practices resources over time. also...

Abstract In this article, we bring together conversation analysis and usage‐based linguistics to investigate the second language (L2) developmental trajectory of a linguistic construction within complex multimodal ecology naturally occurring social interaction. We document how, over course 15 months, an L2 speaker's use French multiword expression comment on dit [how do you say] diversifies in both form function. Two types longitudinal change are observed: (a) The expands its context use:...

This study investigates the use of greetings in Sweden-Swedish and Finland-Swedish service encounters social meaning different greeting forms. Situated within framework variational pragmatics, explores Swedish as a pluricentric language with interactional statistical analyses to what extent variable nation affect variation While indeed is an important factor, also illustrates how variables such age, gender participant roles well situational medium, region venue impact choices participants...

In this study, the authors explore how classroom tasks that are commonly used in task‐based language teaching ( TBLT ) achieved as observable aspects of local educational order (Hester & Francis, through and immanently social behaviors. They focus specifically on students’ learning behaviors, which they track longitudinal conversation‐analytic methodology called behavior tracking LBT (Markee, ). From a theoretical point view, situate within ethnomethodological EM perspective action...

This study documents change over time and across proficiency levels in French second-language (L2) speakers' practices for initiating complaints. Prior research has shown that speakers typically initiate complaints a stepwise manner indexes the contingent, moral, delicate nature of activity. Although elementary my data often launch complaint sequences straightforward way, they sometimes embodiedly foreshadow verbal expressions negative stance or delay talk through brief positively valenced...

This paper investigates the temporal dynamics of bodily and vocal conduct in course L2 word searches. Based on a longitudinal dataset French conversations, we first identify recurrent multimodal search-trajectory involving specific simultaneous successive assemblies hand movements/holds with gaze, (para)verbal displays ongoing search. We interpret these Gestalt-like trajectories as part methodic practices through which speakers both account for breaks progressivity display their search...

In this conversation analytic study, we investigate how customers and staff members manage complaints in Swedish-speaking service interactions Sweden Finland. Prior research on complaining has typically distinguished between so-called direct indirect studied one of these types. We re-examine distinction the context our data identify sequences that might better be referred to as hybrid complaints, which share features with both complaints. The start off but are oriented possibly assigning...

Abstract This article presents a longitudinal study of second language (L2) French speaker’s (Aurelia) use the construction tu vois (‘you see’) over 15 months. Research on first (L1) has shown that been subject to grammaticalization, whereby in spoken frequently serves as discourse marker rather than complement-taking predicate expressing visual perception. Drawing Conversation Analysis, I qualitatively and quantitatively analyze Aurelia’s relation its turn position interactional purposes....

This study investigates the use of verbally incomplete utterances in French-language complaints about third parties or situations. In these cases, a speaker initiates turn with verbal means but stops talking before reaching lexico-syntactic completion. The utterance becomes recognizable as an expression negative stance precise assessment by virtue linguistic formatting turn-initiation, its position within larger interactional context, and speaker's accompanying bodily-visual displays...

Cet article interroge la nature et le développement de compétence d’interaction en L2. Nous présentons d’abord un aperçu historique des évolutions qu’ont connues les recherches sur l’acquisition L2 depuis l’émergence notion communication jusqu’à l’intérêt actuel pour d’interaction, nous discutons principaux résultats Analyse Conversationnelle d’interaction. Au travers deux études empiriques directives l’humour L2, montrons ensuite que implique une diversification ’méthodes’ interactionnelles...

Contributing to academic literacies research, this study investigates how counselors at university writing centers in Sweden and Finland handle the micro-level management of knowledge advice-giving. While are experienced writing, they not necessarily familiar with students' subject areas may also lack access other relevant information, such as specific instructions. Using Conversation Analysis, we examine address their through claims insufficient (CIK). CIKs typically used assessment...

This micro-longitudinal conversation analytic study investigates how a group of 7th grade students in Sweden negotiates participation frameworks EFL work. The analysis follows the changes one student, Emma, during collaborative vocabulary quiz used to test homework assignment. At first, Emma's task is limited and her contributions are questioned by members. As activity progresses, though, Emma increasingly volunteers relevant answers coparticipants progressively orient as knowledgeable...

This study examines the interactional workings of multi-unit turns that have an initial turn-constructional unit re-says immediately prior single-unit turn produced by another speaker. Based on cases in English, Portuguese, and French, our analysis shows resayings do confirming also 1) index speaker's rights over propositional component words, 2) support extension turn. In addition to confirming, thus claim what has been said demonstrate entitlement say more. The thereby both a retrospective...

This conversation analytic study investigates how Vicente, a young au-pair and second language speaker of French, gives directives to the host family children in Frenchspeaking part Switzerland. The specifically analyzes set directive sequences occurring toward end Vicente's four-month stay, which he invokes through questions threats mother's superior authority pursuing after nonaligning responses from children. In doing so, Vicente displays his increased ability tailor interactional conduct...

There are various situations in our daily lives which we share sensory perceptions interaction, but research on how exactly do this is relatively scarce and has often focused primarily the visual auditory channels. In paper, suggest an approach based methods of multimodal conversation analysis also considers other perceptual fields, especially touch. By means example from interaction between two visitors a science centre way they handle exhibit, illustrate one can techniques participants use...

The Centre for Research on Social Interactions (CRSI) of the University Neuchâtel emerged as an interdisciplinary (and inter-faculty) collaboration built around study social interaction. CRSI doctoral program, in turn, was created to provide PhD students with theoretical and methodological support their research endeavours. Within this framework, Young Researchers Conference Interaction (the CRSI-YR Conference) organised February 16–17, 2017, a concrete effort offer young researchers working...
