Abstract
Interactional participants face recurrent practical issues in successfully bringing off what they are doing together. These include: figuring out who speaks next and when they start; putting together the current action so that it relates to the prior one; dealing with trouble in speaking, hearing, or understanding; adequately phrasing some turn at some particular moment for some particular recipient(s); and transitioning through the phases of an overall occasion for interaction. To tackle these issues, participants use shared sets of practices—for taking turns, sequencing actions, repairing talk, designing actions, and structuring the overall episode of talk—that together form the “architecture” of interaction. This chapter reviews this architecture by focusing on four domains of structural organization: turn-taking, sequence, repair, and turn design. In our review, we include examples from a range of languages and cultures, as well as references where more detailed discussion can be found.
