Abstract
Non-lexical vocalizations are key interactional resources for novices learning joint embodied actions. We use ethnomethodological video analysis of a beginners’ partner dance workshop to explore how novices use non-lexical vocalizations to navigate unfamiliar dance movements together. These vocalizations often accompany apologies, accounts, and bodily actions that mark moments of trouble with coordination. We show how these non-lexical vocalizations can provide reference points for novices who lack expert terminology to account for, evaluate, and re-animate their experiences of otherwise inchoate sequences of joint embodied action.
期刊介绍：
This journal is unique in that it provides a forum devoted to the interdisciplinary study of language and communication. The investigation of language and its communicational functions is treated as a concern shared in common by those working in applied linguistics, child development, cultural studies, discourse analysis, intellectual history, legal studies, language evolution, linguistic anthropology, linguistics, philosophy, the politics of language, pragmatics, psychology, rhetoric, semiotics, and sociolinguistics. The journal invites contributions which explore the implications of current research for establishing common theoretical frameworks within which findings from different areas of study may be accommodated and interrelated. By focusing attention on the many ways in which language is integrated with other forms of communicational activity and interactional behaviour, it is intended to encourage approaches to the study of language and communication which are not restricted by existing disciplinary boundaries.
