Based on SMS-, WhatsApp- and WeChat-interactions, this study will illustrate how sequentiality, and thus the temporally dynamic sequence of communicative actions, shapes the dialogical constitution of practices of personal reference. The analysis demonstrates how translocal media communication is characterized by sequential processes which form the basis for the collaborative display of relationship formations and affiliations: Chinese as well as German participants in these interactions repeatedly employ nominal forms of self- and other-reference (instead of deictic pronouns) to display togetherness as family or couple. These 'alternative' practices of person reference prove to be sequentially relevant insofar as they build up expectations of co-participants reaction in their following turn. Furthermore, the analysis illustrates that not only communicative actions are closely interwoven with the sequential order in which they are carried out, but also practices of person reference and the interwoven interactional modalities and stances prove to be sequentially organized.
