Abstract:

Analysis of conversations provides a vehicle toward increasing a learner's knowledge of a new language, while partnering the teacher as a guide in learning. This creation of a unique partnership among students and ESL teachers forges a path toward recognizing and developing the natural
aspects associated with sociolinguistics. The analysis of the two conversations serve to note at least three aspects of furthering conversational analysis. Response tokens, turn-taking and paralinguistic activities are all natural features of language. As commonalities of language are noted, a new aspect of
learning becomes readily apparent to the novice learner of the new language. This new aspect connectsthe novice to the new language through the recognition of the socio-function of language as a toolfor social convention, as well as, a method for teaching and learning.

Introduction:

The theories involving conversational analysis are not unlike the concept of speech immersion in the pursuit of learning a new language. Students are encouraged to use the language to be learned as the sole vehicle in conversation. According to Barraja-Rohan (2011), this form of learning a new language is effective, keeps students engaged and helps students better retain the new language. The more subtle features of language are conveyed through conversational analysis. For example, in English it is common for speakers to formally begin a conversation through a greeting. This feature can be noted throughout English culture whether the speakers are face-to-face or unseen, as in a telephone conversation.
