Drawing on everyday telephone and video interactions, this book surveys how English speakers use grammar to formulate responses in ordinary conversation. Speakers build their responses in a variety of ways: the responses can be longer or shorter, repetitive or not, and can be uttered with different intonational 'melodies'.
1. Introduction; 2. Responses in information-seeking sequences with 'question-word interrogatives'; 3. Responses in informing sequences; 4. Sequences with assessment responses; 5. Responses in request-for-action sequences; 6. Conclusions.
