Abstract

The focus of this study is on participants’ prosodic collaboration during talk-in-interaction, and this phenomenon is introduced here as “prosodic orientation”. The term “orientation” has been used in conversation analysis to describe many forms of observable reaction by one participant to another. The term prosodic orientation describes one speaker responding prosodically to another speaker’s prosody in the immediately following turn. It does not encompass any other form of orientation which participants may display in conversation, as for example laughter or meta-linguistic comments.
