description: This book develops a systematic model for the analyses and description of casual conversation in English. Working through examples of casual conversations, the authors argue that despite its sometimes aimless appearance and apparently unstructured content, casual conversation is a highly structured semantic activity and plays a critical role in the social construction of reality.
