Annotation

This conversation analytic/interactional study discusses what kinds of resources can be employed by participants to show empathy in reply to affect-laden personal experience tellings in German daily interaction. It is shown that a whole series of resources can be deployed, at particular sequential positions, and in a particular order from kinetic and ‘fleeting’ to verbal and ‘substantial’, during personal experience telling.
