doi:10.5771/9781498588058

Summary

This book focuses on conversation analysis in Czech, including the prosody-syntax-interface and online-syntax in real time that deals with turn initiating elements in everyday conversations. By combining a pragmatic formal theory with a formal syntax model, this book serves as a guide to the problems of syntax, semantics, and pragmatics of spoken everyday talk and as a handbook on conversational analysis.
