Abstract
This article is centered around the discussion on the relationship between spoken and written language in online written discourse, which it investigates from the perspective of interactional grammar (“samtalegrammatik”). The purpose of the article is to highlight certain shortcomings in the discussion as it has played out so far and to argue for a different approach to it, inspired by conversation analysis. After an introduction to the discussion, a CA-inspired analysis of a phenomenon of oral interactional grammar, namely questions in the declarative used in threads in two Facebook groups, is presented. It is concluded that using the method is possible and that the phenomenon investigated works in the same way on Facebook as it does in oral interaction. The article discusses what perspectives these findings give on the discussion on the relationship between speech and writing in online written discourse. Finally, it is recommended that more investigations of this sort are conducted, among other things to refine the method and to further investigate what insights it can provide on the relationship between spoken and written language online.
