Abstract
Transformative responses and their interactional functions in Mandarin Chinese conversations
This paper discusses the transformative responses in Chinese spoken language. Transformative
responses fall into two categories: term-transformative responses and agenda-transformative responses. Speaking of Chinese
conversation, term-transformative responses aim at providing more accurate and abundant information, and are mainly single-clause
or phrase. While agenda-transformative responses are mainly multi-clauses and will lead to the expansion of sequence.
