Abstract

In this case study six video recorded interactions between overseas Masters students and their supervisor at a UK university are analysed. The methodological approach adopted for the case studies is Converation Analysis. It is shown that fundamental social actions, such as responding with appropriate next actions and showing sensitivity to local contingencies, are accomplished successfully by participants in spite of significant cultural and linguistic differences. The argument is made that communicative acts need not be defined or interpreted as ‘intercultural’ when cultural backgrounds or differences are not made relevant by the communicating participants themselves. The data show that cultural differences do not necessarily impact on talk, and that a focus on interactional achievements may help understand intercultural communication from a participant perspective.
