Abstract

In this article I provide two examples of extended stretches of talk to illustrate a par- ticular request type, namely, contingent requests. In particular, I demonstrate how contingent requests and their turn shapes are occasioned by some conditional cir- cumstances that are set up during their prerequest expansion.One of themain charac- teristics of such contingent requests is that they contain a conditional wenn-clause (if-clause), which may be a linguistic realization of the contingent circumstances. Such conditional wenn-clauses may occur in initial or midposition of a request turn. The analysis suggests that the contingencies expressed by the wenn-clause in the re- quest turn, and its position in that request turn, may be connected to preference organization.
