Abstract
Recent studies illustrate cases of turn continuations that are not necessarily criterially dependent on clausal syntax (Couper-Kuhlen & Ono, 2007; Ford, Fox, & Thompson, 2002), advancing a more multidimensional construal of turn expansions, in general, which, as Auer (2007) put it, “is not a syntactic issue alone” (p. 651). This study further develops such a possibility and looks at a class of examples in Japanese conversation whereby a series of syntactically disjunct clausal units are both retrospectively oriented toward and pragmatically, semantically, and prosodically coherent with preceding material, often acting functionally as continuations. Some implications for the role of syntax in theory regarding turn-constructional unit continuations, specifically, and turn-taking, in general, are also discussed.
