Abstract

From a conversation -analytic perspective, this paper examines the interactional import of pauses before TCU completion (hereafter PBTCs) as an object of analysis that is demonstrably oriented to by the participants in conversation. PBTCs have interactional implications not only for the construction of the TCU in which they are found but also for shaping the turn (and discourse) by way of projecting an additional TCU (or sets of TCUs). PBTCs project not only the TCU-final component, which is formulated as a 'mid-point' designed to solicit only a mildly collaborative uptake, but also an additional TCU (or a set of TCUs), which is produced as a more upshot-relevant unit that warrants an upgraded, more fully collaborative (or confrontational) uptake by the recipient. It is proposed that this interactionally motivated structural feature of PBTCs furnishes the speakers with the resource for using them as a place where they can plant an expression with delicate or face-threatening content and present it as something that is designedly to be taken up only briefly in passing by the recipient. It is shown that the discourse-organizational pattern involving PBTCs, with the TCU-final component serving as a mid-point in the turn being unfolded, is also relevant to story-telling contexts where TCUs containing a PBTC are oriented to by the story-recipient as a place furnishing a pre-upshot stage in which such actions as repair or clarification can be relevantly initiated and pursued before the speaker moves on to the main segment of the story.
