Phonetik und Prosodie werden seit langem als fundamentale Aspekte des gesprochenen Diskurses behandelt. Insbesondere Prosodie und Phonetik natürlicher Alltagssprache haben sich zu einem eigenen Forschungsbereich entwickelt. Das Hauptaugenmerk lag dabei bisher auf Gesprächstruktur, Turn-Taking und die Kontextualisierung von sozialen Praktiken, Handlungen, Genres, Stilen und Affekten.
Dieser Band präsentiert sowohl eine Einführung in Grundbegriffe und -konzepte der prosodisch-phonetischen Gesprächsforschung, als auch neue Befunde junger und etablierter ForscherInnen. Die einzelnen Kapitel behandeln unter anderem Prosodie und Phonetik von Affektdarstellungen, Theatervorstellungen, institutioneller Interaktion und Sequenzorganisation. Gleichzeitig bietet der Band einen Überblick über die Methoden, die in diesem Forschungsbereich genutzt werden. Der Band richtet sich damit an alle, für deren Arbeit die Erforschung von Sprache und Interaktion eine Rolle spielt, seien es Studierende oder erfahrene ForscherInnen.
Interactional linguistics
(2018)
The first textbook dedicated to interactional linguistics, focusing on linguistic analyses of conversational phenomena, this introduction provides an overview of the theory and methodology of interactional linguistics. Reviewing recent findings on linguistic practices used in turn construction and turn taking, repair, action formation, ascription, and sequence and topic organization, the book examines the way that linguistic units of varying size - sentences, clauses, phrases, clause combinations, and particles - are mobilized for the implementation of specific actions in talk-in-interaction. A final chapter discusses the implications of an interactional perspective for our understanding of language as well as its variation, diversity, and universality. Supplementary online chapters explore additional topics such as the linguistic organization of preference, stance, footing, and storytelling, as well as the use of prosody and phonetics, and further practices with language. Featuring summary boxes and transcripts from recordings of everyday conversation, this is an essential resource for advanced undergraduate and postgraduate courses on language in social interaction.

Introduction
(1996)
This article draws on work at the interface of grammar and interaction to argue that the clause is a locus of interaction, in the sense that it is one of the most frequent grammatical formats which speakers orient to in projecting what actions are being done by others' utterances and in acting on these projections. Yet the way in which the clause affords grammatical projectability varies significantly from language to language. In fact, it depends on the nature of the clausal grammatical formats which are available as resources in a language: in some languages these allow early projection in the turn unit (as in English), in others they do not (as in Japanese). We focus here on these two languages and show that their variable grammatical projectability has repercussions on the way in which three interactional phenomena - next-turn onset, co-construction, and turn-unit extension - are realized in the respective speech communities. In each case the practices used are precisely the ones which the clausal grammatical formats in the given language promote. The evidence thus suggests that clauses are interactionally warranted, if variably built, formats for social action
Grammar in everyday talk
(2015)
This book surveys how English speakers use grammar to formulate responses in ordinary conversation. The authors show that speakers build their responses in a variety of ways: the responses can be longer or shorter, repetitive or not, and can be uttered with different intonational 'melodies'"--
"Drawing on everyday telephone and video interactions, this book surveys how English speakers use grammar to formulate responses in ordinary conversation. The authors show that speakers build their responses in a variety of ways: the responses can be longer or shorter, repetitive or not, and can be uttered with different intonational 'melodies'. Focusing on four sequence types: responses to questions ('What time are we leaving?' - 'Seven'), responses to informings ('The May Company are sure having a big sale' - 'Are they?'), responses to assessments ('Track walking is so boring. Even with headphones' - 'It is'), and responses to requests ('Please don't tell Adeline' - 'Oh no I won't say anything'), they argue that an interactional approach holds the key to explaining why some types of utterances in English conversation seem to have something 'missing' and others seem overly wordy.
Thematische Schwerpunkte des Sammelbandes bilden die Inhalte und die Ziele in der Erforschung und Analyse von Migrationsprozessen und die daraus resultierenden Situationen von Sprachkontakt und Kulturtransfer in Europa und Übersee. Neben der thematischen Einführung in die Migrationslinguistik widmet sich der Band den migrationsbedingten Formen des Sprachkontaktes und der Sprachverwendung in Nordamerika sowie verschiedenen Sprachdynamiken in Europa. Auch der sprachliche Integrationsdruck zwischen Asien und Lateinamerika wird in diesem Band thematisiert. Neben Beiträgen von bekannten Migrationslinguisten wie Georges Lüdi (Universität Basel) und Hermann Haller (City University, New York) finden sich theoretische und deskriptive Ansätze zu Sprachkontakt, Sprachwandel und Sprachverfall infolge von Migration aus der Perspektive verschiedener Einzelphilologien. Mit Beiträgen von Lena Busse, Elizabeth Couper-Kuhlen, Hermann Haller, Friederike Kern, Georges Lüdi, Isolde Pfaff, Elton Prifti, Claudia Schlaak, Margret Selting, Thomas Stehl, Lars Steinicke und Maria Wilke.
