Abstract
This paper focuses on two basic principles in the dialogical emergence of self-contained lin- guistic units ('sentences') in interaction: projection and latency. Both are elementary for the synchronization of participants' minds in what I call the online emergence of syntax. Projec- tion enables speakers and recipients to predict – on the basis of what has been said so far – structural slots in the emergent syntactic gestalt more or less accurately. Latency, on the other hand, relates a new utterance to the structure of the preceding one(s). It links the structure of an emergent syntactic gestalt to that of previous, already complete syntactic gestalts. I will show that projection and latency can easily be observed in mundane conversational phenomena that happen time and again in everyday interaction. These phenomena provide 'live' evidence of their relevance and are available without experimental elicitation techniques.
