2022. Relationship building in oncological doctor-patient interaction: The use of address forms as ‘Tie Signs’. Relationships in Organized Helping: Analyzing interaction in psychotherapy, medical encounters, coaching and in social media, Scarvaglieri, Claudio, Eva-Maria Graf and Thomas Spranz-Fogasy (eds.), pp. 195–220
This paper studies practices of relationship building between oncologists and their patients during consultations when a diagnosis of malignancy is communicated. The analysis – with its focus on physicians’ uses of terms of address – aims to provide a better understanding of the sequential… read more | Chapter
2021. Enacting ‘Being with You’: Vocative uses of du (“you”) in German everyday interaction. Pragmatics 31:1, pp. 87–113
The German second person personal pronoun du is commonly described as a deictic “shifter” or a T-address term, which is incorporated as an argument of a predicate. Exploring the ways in which participants use pronouns in everyday interaction, however, shows that these are not the only uses of du.… read more | Article
2020. Chapter 7. Practices of clause-combining: From complex wenn-constructions to insubordinate (‘stand-alone’) conditionals in everyday spoken German. Emergent Syntax for Conversation: Clausal patterns and the organization of action, Maschler, Yael, Simona Pekarek Doehler, Jan Lindström and Leelo Keevallik (eds.), pp. 185–220
Traditionally, conditional wenn-clauses in German are treated as subordinate clauses, either preceding or following their matrix clauses. My data – based on naturally occurring German talk-in-interaction from various settings – show that participants in everyday interactions use various types of… read more | Chapter
2015. Introduction: Temporality in interaction. Temporality in Interaction, Deppermann, Arnulf and Susanne Günthner (eds.), pp. 1–24
The authors establish a phenomenological perspective on the temporal constitution of experience and action. Retrospection and projection (i.e. backward as well as forward orientation of everyday action), sequentiality and the sequential organization of activities as well as simultaneity (i.e.… read more | Article
2015. A temporally oriented perspective on connectors in interactions: und zwar ('namely/in fact')-constructions in everyday German” conversations. Temporality in Interaction, Deppermann, Arnulf and Susanne Günthner (eds.), pp. 237–264
This paper examines und zwar-(‘namely/in fact’)-constructions in terms of their real-time processing in interaction. In using und zwar, speakers orient backwards by linking their current utterance to prior ones. At the same time, und zwar functions as a projecting strategy for anticipating… read more | Article
2011. N be that-constructions in everyday German conversation: A reanalysis of ‘die Sache ist/das Ding ist’ (‘the thing is’)-clauses as projector phrases. Subordination in Conversation: A cross-linguistic perspective, Laury, Ritva and Ryoko Suzuki (eds.), pp. 11–36
Based on a corpus of conversational German, I will show that the standard view of N be that-constructions (e.g. ‘the thing is/the point is...’) as [matrix clause + subordinated complement clause] cannot be supported by actual data from spoken interactions. Instead of a subordinated complement… read more | Article
2011. The construction of emotional involvement in everyday German narratives – interactive uses of ‘dense constructions’. Pragmatics 21:4, pp. 573–592
This paper investigates ways in which participants in everyday German narratives construct emotions as social phenomena; i.e. in particular, how they organize and communicate emotional involvement. I will argue that contextualizing emotions and affects permeates various levels of linguistic and… read more | Article
