Reference in Interaction

本研究的目的是观察会话参与者如何建立对其意向对象的认知和理解，并讨论这种建立参照关系的互动活动如何有助于实现会话的总体目标。通过对日本说书中人称指称的分析，笔者指出了一些现象，说明指称建立活动不仅指人，而且有助于故事的实现。

The purpose of this study is to observe how participants in conversation establish recognition and understanding of their intended referents, and to discuss how such interactional activities of reference establishment contribute to the achievement of the overall goals of conversation. Through the analysis of person reference in Japanese storytelling, I point out some phenomena which demonstrate that the activities of reference establishment not only refer to persons but also contribute to the achievement of the storytelling.
