Background: Communicating about delusions is generally considered a challenging task. Material and methods: Assuming that there are nevertheless a variety of communicative resources competently employed to meet this challenge, the authors present a conversation analytic study of two narrative interviews in which people talk about their experience of delusions. Results: It is shown that through pauses, breaks, reformulations, negotiations of the so-called common ground and the use of metaphoric speech, they succeed in conveying many aspects of the experience of delusions that cannot simply be described in terms of content. Conclusions: These examples of communicative strategies can be a resource for others and encourage mental health professionals and users alike to engage in conversations on delusions.

Komplimente und ihre Erwiderungen sind soziale Handlungen, die Höflichkeitsnormen und Solidarität zwischen Sprechenden ausdrücken. Sie werden von Interakteuren formuliert, die sich unterschiedlicher Erwiderungsstrategien, entsprechend der sprachlich-kulturellen Prägung, bedienen. Ein Wissensmangel über bevorzugte Strategien führt zu kulturellen Missverständissen und Gefühlen sozialer Entfremdung. Dieser Beitrag bietet daher eine Didaktisierung von Kompliment/erwiderungen im fortgeschrittenen DaF-Anfängerkurs. Die Unterrichtseinheit basiert auf konversationsanalytischer Forschung mit dem Ziel der Interaktionskompetenz, die Lernenden dabei hilft, kulturell adäquate Komplimentreaktionen zu benutzen, um sich aktiv an Konversationen in der Zielsprachenkultur zu beteiligen und somit positive Gefühle der Wertschätzung und soziale Harmonie hervorzurufen. Compliments and compliment responses are social actions that reflect norms of politeness and solidarity among speakers. These compliment/responses are negotiated among interactants who employ varying response strategies in different language/culture environments. A lack of knowledge about preferred strategies may cause cultural misunderstandings and feelings of disconnectedness. This article provides a concrete plan for implementing a lesson on compliment/responses in advanced beginning German language courses. The lesson plan is informed by conversation analytical research and pursues a teaching approach that nurtures interactional competence for enabling students to utilize culturally appropriate response strategies to actively engage with speakers of the target culture, creating positive feelings of appreciation and social harmony.

Self-help groups offer contexts for individuals with similar experiences of social exclusion to find each other. Members work to understand these experiences of individual deviation from societal norms by drawing on concepts of morality. Moralising narratives are used to discuss how this deviation is experienced and how it is addressed by others, but also how other individuals are perceived as deviating. Applying conversation analytical methods to transcribed audio recordings of a session of a self-help group for people with obesity, this article shows that the norms drawn on in this form of communication are neither homogenous nor stable. Societal norms regarding body shape and local norms of face saving and empathy form a constant tension of expectations resulting in paradoxical interactional positions. Morally integrating the group and maintaining a stance of solidarity proves to be constant hard and complex interactional work under these circumstances. One relevant strategy is the use of specific vagueness in narratives, which fosters affective affiliation while avoiding topical criticism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Building on a corpus of 70 hours of German driving lessons, this paper studies the use of declaratives vs. imperatives for instruction. It shows how these linguistic resources are adapted to different praxeological, temporal and participant‐related environments. Declaratives are used for first instructions, task‐setting and post‐trial discussions. They exhibit complex syntax and do not call for immediate compliance. Their high degree of explicitness conveys how the action is to be carried out. Imperative instructions overwhelmingly correct ongoing actions of students or respond to their failure to produce expected actions. They exhibit minimal argument structure. They are reminders which presuppose that the student monitors the scene and can perform the action unproblematically. They index that requests have to be complied with immediately or even urgently.

The paper is concerned with the semantics of the French particle bien in spoken interaction. It argues that linguistic structures are shaped by their use in interaction and thus have to be described in relation to their interactional context. Bien is commonly described as a modal adverb (e.g. Il est bien habillé. 'He is well dressed') or as an adverb of degree (e.g. Il est bien grand pour son âge. 'He is rather tall for his age'). In certain contexts, however, it appears to be used as a modal particle, as argued in this paper (e.g. C'est bien la première fois que ça m'arrive. 'It's [MP] the first time that happens to me'). The study shows that this use can be related not only to a number of syntactic and structural restrictions but also to specific sequential patterns, to a particular stance of the speaker toward the proposition expressed and to a specific discourse function. The latter consists in referring to contextual elements that are in contrast to the proposition of the current utterance. Bien thus functions as a kind of contextualization cue and as an instruction to the hearer to take the proposition into account. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
