Abstract
An understanding of “Okay” usages in conversation requires analytic considerations extending beyond free-standing and non-continuative deployments. Relying on previous findings on how recipients and current speakers organize such activities as phone openings and closings, the present analysis addresses a wider variety of interactional environments in establishing certain predominant and thus fundamental features. Those addressed herein include how recipients and current speakers rely on “Okay” pivotally, at or near transition/opportunity spaces: Decidedly in response to prior talk, yet also in transitionally relevant (‘state of readiness’) ways via shifts/ movements to next-positioned matters. Though recipients or current speakers may (in next turn) treat prior “Okay” usages as non-continuative, and/or move to sequentially delete the actions “Okay” was taken to be projecting (i.e., ‘Okay + [fuller turn]’), just what participants appear to be prefacing or setting-up via “Okay” is recurrently (and eventually) apparent.
