Title: Explaining the emergence of pragmatic markers: Cooptation, pragmaticalization, constructionalization? Panel organizers: Wiltrud Mihatsch (Tübingen), Inga Hennecke (Tübingen), Gunther Kaltenböck (Graz), Stefan Schneider (Graz) Pragmatic markers, a heterogeneous class of extra-clausal expressions including discourse markers, stance adverbials, interjections, and formulae of social exchange, occupy a peculiar position in linguistic analysis.

This panel focuses on the study of word searches as interactional phenomena that affect the progressivity of turns, sequences, and activities. In contrast to cognitive approaches, which treat troubles in turn production, such as speech perturbations or hesitations, primarily as rooted in individual, cognitive processes (e.g. Levelt 1983; Goodglass et al. 1989), conversation-analytic research has investigated word searches as a particular type of repair (e.g. Schegloff et al. 1977) and emphasised

IPAbet is a fast and memorable keyboard for typing the International Phonetic Alphabet, directly in any application. It is a normal US keyboard: unshifted keys type plain US characters, while IPA symbols take at most two keystrokes, using familiar spellings and romanization conventions — s⇧H → ʃ (as in "sh"), t⇧H → θ, n⇧G → ŋ, 2⇧H → ʔ (from the Arabic chat alphabet). Diacritics are dead keys on the Option layer, like the standard accent keys. Every symbol on the IPA chart is covered — pulmonic a
