  1. R-4 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Adjacency pair → Speech act

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An adjacency pair links conversational actions such as asking and answering a question. A speech act is the action performed by an utterance. The pair shows how one action makes a particular kind of response relevant.

  2. R-5 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Adjacency pair → Speaker change

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Adjacency pairs create expectations about the next contribution to a conversation. Turn-taking governs who speaks when and makes such sequences possible. Other factors also shape the allocation of turns.

  3. R-6 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Adjacency pair → Preference organization

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Responses within an adjacency pair can follow different patterns. Preference organization helps explain why, for instance, refusals are often delayed or accompanied by an explanation. “Preference” here concerns the structure of the exchange, regardless of anyone’s personal wishes.

    Conversation Analysis → Adjacency pair

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Conversation analysis studies sequences of related actions. Adjacency pairs help explain what response an action makes relevant and how participants handle that expectation.

    Preference organization → Adjacency pair

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Preference organisation studies how possible responses are designed differently in a sequence. Adjacency pairs supply the setting in which these response patterns can be observed.

    Speaker change → Adjacency pair

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    Previously published English text
    Adjacency pairs make particular next actions expectable. Speaker change shows who actually continues. Conversation analysis examines how the transition is organised in time and interaction.
