1. THEORETICAL BASIS FOR CONVERSATIONAL ANALYSIS Conversation has been of primary interest to language researchers; since natural, unplanned, everyday conversation is the most commonly occurring and universal language "genre", in that conversation is a speech activity in which all which all members of a community routinely participate (Riggenbach, 1999: 55). Conversational analysis is an approach to discourse dealing with the linguistic analysis of conversation, and strongly associated with ethnomethodology (Johnson and Johnson, 1998: 89). Richards et al. suggest that conversational analysis refers to the analysis of natural conversation in order to discover what the linguistic characteristics of conversation are and how conversation is used in ordinary life (1992: 106). Conversation analysis, according to Hutchby and Wooffitt, is the study of talk and is the systematic analysis of the talk produced in everyday situations of human interaction: talk-in-interaction (1998: 13).
