Abstract

Starting out from the fundamental role of intercomprehension in conversation, the article studies definitorial activities as one of the procedures aiming at the establishment of a satisfactory degree of meaning to reciprocal activities allowing the poursuit of communicative objectives. Based on a corpus-driven analysis of six conversational sequences from different contexts involving activities delimitating the ‘signified' (signifié) as well as the possibility to identify the referent of a ‘signified', the author examines definitorial activities as phenomena of definitionin-interaction. These are marked by the following characteristics: their interactiveness, the diversity of forms, their more or less developed form, their ‘natural', non-scientific and uncertain nature.
