Véronique Traverso et al., « Inviting in telephone calls: a cross-linguistic study of social actions in interaction », HAL-SHS : linguistique, ID : 10670/1.vj9gcx
This special issue of the Journal of Pragmatics concerns the activity of inviting and responding to invitations in authentic telephone calls in six different languages. Using Conversational Analysis to investigate telephone calls that were audio- recorded in family homes, and in one case, in a bank office, the papers focus on invitations to friends, famiily members, acquaintances and other casual recipients in ordinary and institutional conversations.
