Emergent Syntax for Conversation: Clausal patterns and the organization of action
Edited by Yael Maschler, Simona Pekarek Doehler, Jan Lindström and Leelo Keevallik
This volume explores how emergent patterns of complex syntax – that is, syntactic structures beyond a simple clause – relate to the local contingencies of action formation in social interaction. It examines both the on-line emergence of clause-combining patterns as they are ‘patched together’ on… read more[Studies in Language and Social Interaction, 32] 2020. vi, 343 pp.
Metalanguage in Interaction: Hebrew discourse markers
Yael Maschler
Metalanguage in Interaction is about the crystallization of metalanguage employed throughout interaction into the discourse markers which permeate talk. Based on close analysis of naturally-occurring Hebrew conversation, it is a synchronic study of the grammaticization of discourse markers, a… read more[Pragmatics & Beyond New Series, 181] 2009. xvi, 258 pp.
2020 Chapter 4. The insubordinate – subordinate continuum: Prosody, embodied action, and the emergence of Hebrew complex syntax Emergent Syntax for Conversation: Clausal patterns and the organization of action, Maschler, Yael, Simona Pekarek Doehler, Jan Lindström and Leelo Keevallik (eds.), pp. 87–126 | Chapter
This chapter examines the continuum stretching between Hebrew syntactically integrated and unintegrated (‘insubordinate’) she-‘that/which/who’-clauses produced following final/continuing intonation contours in naturally-occurring interaction. Leaving aside modal insubordinate she-clauses, I show… read more
2020 Chapter 1. Complex syntax-in-interaction: Emergent and emerging clause-combining patterns for organizing social actions Emergent Syntax for Conversation: Clausal patterns and the organization of action, Maschler, Yael, Simona Pekarek Doehler, Jan Lindström and Leelo Keevallik (eds.), pp. 1–22 | Chapter
2018 The on-line emergence of Hebrew insubordinate she - (‘that/which/who’) clauses: A usage-based perspective on so-called ‘subordination’ Studies in Language 42:3, pp. 669–707 | Article
This study examines the on-line emergence of insubordinate clauses in Hebrew conversation as constrained by local interactional contingencies, questioning traditional notions of grammatical ‘subordination’ and contributing to conceptions of grammar as a locally sensitive, temporally unfolding… read more
2017 Morphological self-repair: Self-repair within the word Studies in Language 41:3, pp. 638–659 | Article
In this study we explore patterns of same-turn self-repair within the word, across ten typologically and areally diverse languages. We find universal processes emerging through language-specific resources, namely: recycling is used to delay a next item due, while replacement is used to replace… read more
2017 Chapter 1. The emergence of Hebrew loydea / loydat (‘I dunno masc/fem ’) from interaction: Blurring the boundaries between discourse marker, pragmatic marker, and modal particle Pragmatic Markers, Discourse Markers and Modal Particles: New perspectives, Fedriani, Chiara and Andrea Sansó (eds.), pp. 37–69 | Chapter
A general approach to discourse markers is sketched through an analysis which approaches grammar as emerging in interaction and coming into being through mundane language use (Hopper 1987, 2011). The study continues work on mental verb constructions in a variety of languages. By analyzing all… read more
2015 Word Order in Time: Emergent Hebrew (NS)V/VNS Syntax Temporality in Interaction, Deppermann, Arnulf and Susanne Günthner (eds.), pp. 201–236 | Article
This study explores the temporal dynamics of subject-predicate word order in the verbal clauses of spoken narrative Hebrew discourse. Contrary to previous claims (Glinert 1989), word order is shown to be rather fixed, with only 57 tokens of the VNs construction in a 6.5 hour corpus. They are… read more
2012 Emergent projecting constructions: The case of Hebrew yada (‘know’) Studies in Language 36:4, pp. 785–847 | Article
The present analysis is grounded in a view of grammar emerging in interaction and coming into being through mundane language use. By analyzing Hebrew interactional data, I outline the continua of synchronic usage from literal constructions involving the verb yada (‘know’) to three projecting… read more
