Section 8
Probably the most widely recognised conversational convention is that
people take turns speaking. In other words, one person speaks while
the other listens, then they swap. But how do people know when it is
their turn? Some rules must be present, otherwise conversations
would be continually breaking down into a disorganized jumble of
interruptions and simultaneous talk.
Turn-taking cues are usually quite subtle. A person does not simply stop
talking when they are ready to let the other person start. They usually
signal in advance that they are about to conclude. The clues may be
semantic (So anyway, or Last but not least, ); but more
commonly the speech itself can be modified to show that a turn is
about to end typically, by lowering its pitch, loudness, or speed.
Body movements and patterns of eye contact are especially important.
While speaking, we look at and away from our listener in about equal
proportions; but as we approach the end of a turn, we look at the
listener more steadily.
Listeners are not passive in all of this. There are several ways for a
listener to signal that they want to speak next. One way is through an
obvious increase in body tension by leaning forward or producing an
audible intake of breath. A less subtle approach is simply to interrupt.
This strategy may be tolerated if the purpose is to clarify what the
speaker is saying, but usually leads to social disapproval.
Indicate whether the following are true or false according to the passage
above.
1) Rules are unnecessary for conversation.
True
False
2) A change in volume can signal that a speaker is about to stop
talking.
True

3) While speaking, we look at our speaker all the time.
