초록

Using conversation analytic framework, this paper explicates how sequential structures and action formations are organized through an adjacency pair of negative yes/no question with pre-verbal negation and its response in naturally occurring Korean conversations. The paper demonstrates that (i) the pre-verbal negation yes/no question can frame an understanding of a negative event (a negated propositional content) that the questioner ‘noticed’ from the preceding talk and (ii) speakers use the negative question to implement various actions, such as understanding check, information request, or complaint/accusation, depending on the sequential position of the question and what is being addressed as ‘negative’. The paper also examines the ways in which responses are produced to different actions embodied by pre-verbal negation yes/no questions. The analysis demonstrates that an utterance is understood by speakers for the action that the utterance implements, even beyond the constraints set by the form itself.

Abstract

Using conversation analytic framework, this paper explicates how sequential structures and action formations are organized through an adjacency pair of negative yes/no question with pre-verbal negation and its response in naturally occurring Korean conversations. The paper demonstrates that (i) the pre-verbal negation yes/no question can frame an understanding of a negative event (a negated propositional content) that the questioner ‘noticed’ from the preceding talk and (ii) speakers use the negative question to implement various actions, such as understanding check, information request, or complaint/accusation, depending on the sequential position of the question and what is being addressed as ‘negative’. The paper also examines the ways in which responses are produced to different actions embodied by pre-verbal negation yes/no questions. The analysis demonstrates that an utterance is understood by speakers for the action that the utterance implements, even beyond the constraints set by the form itself.
