Conversation Analysis and Other‐Initiated Repair

This entry builds on the entry “Conversation Analysis and Repair Organization: Overview” by examining the organization of other-initiated repair. Excerpts (1) and (2) illustrate the two varieties, or trajectories, of other-initiated repair: those in which the repair proper is performed by the speaker of the troublesome talk (other-initiated self-repair)and by its recipient (other-initiated other-repair). The trouble-source (TS), the initiation (I), and the repair proper (R) are labeled in the transcripts: Keywords: language and social interaction; language in the classroom; pragmatics; second language acquisition
