Abstract
Our concern in this paper is the role of relative clauses (in English conversation) in formulating reference. We wiII offer examples which suggest that, in addition to gramrnatica1 and infornational considerations, certain facts about the use of relative clauses can be insightfully accounted for in interactional terms. That is, the primary goal of the paper is to enrich the on-going project of functional syntax--which we take to be the illumination of the relationships between form and function in language--by including in function the creation/maintenance of social identities and relations between conversational participants, as well as other interactional issues.
