Annotation
This paper explores how Australian Aboriginal conversational partakers from four far communities pick a next speaker in turns that are grammatically drafted as questions, centering mainly on the role of a set of embodied conducts. Data are in Murrinhpatha, Garrwa, Gija, and Jaru with English translations.
