Abstract
Fragments of units occur quite frequently in talk. For not everything that occurs before the beginning of a new unit is itself a unit: besides units we find stretches of talk that do not constitute complete units but are left unfinished. How are such unfinished fragments recognizable as unfinished? How can participants distinguish units from fragments of units? And what, in consequence, makes finished, complete units recognizable as such?
