Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Los Angeles, 2005.

This dissertation investigates ways in which two different languages, English and Russian, deal with a common interactional issue---how to show that the current utterance is occasioned by something other than the immediately preceding talk. The focus is on two discourse markers, the Russian particle "-to" and the English marker "so," both of which are involved, in somewhat different ways, in indicating that the action implemented by the utterance should or could have been performed earlier. Using the methodology of conversation analysis, the dissertation investigates the communicative functions of these discourse markers in contexts of their use through a close analysis of recorded, naturally occurring conversations.

520 $a This dissertation investigates ways in which two different languages, English and Russian, deal with a common interactional issue---how to show that the current utterance is occasioned by something other than the immediately preceding talk. The focus is on two discourse markers, the Russian particle "-to" and the English marker "so," both of which are involved, in somewhat different ways, in indicating that the action implemented by the utterance should or could have been performed earlier. Using the methodology of conversation analysis, the dissertation investigates the communicative functions of these discourse markers in contexts of their use through a close analysis of recorded, naturally occurring conversations.
520 $a The first part of the dissertation examines the use of the Russian particle "-to" in turns of talk that initiate new action sequences. I argue that the particle marks the action implemented by the utterance as delayed by reference to the organization of sequences and larger activities, the overall structural organization of the conversation as a unit, and in relation to real time events. The analysis shows that speakers use the particle not only for structural reasons but also for normative ones---to display their interactional accountability for the action's late placement.
520 $a The second part of the dissertation explores the English discourse marker "so," also focusing on its use in sequence-initial positions. The analysis demonstrates that "so" can be characterized as a marker of emergence from incipiency, indicating that the action being launched by the turn has been on the speaker's agenda. The dissertation explores ways in which "so" can be used to preface actions that have been projected to occur next, to introduce pending matters, and to retrojectedly mark an action as having been incipient. "So" prefacing on new topic initiations is also contrasted with "oh" prefacing in the same position, showing that "so" and "oh" can function as indexes of other- and self-regardingness, and, thereby, be involved in negotiating social relationships.
