This study uses data from a shoe-repair shop, supplemented by data from medical and mundane contexts, to analyze three progressively minimal grammatical formats used to implement offers and requests in interaction (i.e. do you want…?, you want?, and want…?). We argue that this cline of minimality reflects a cline of the action-initiator's stance, from relatively weak to strong (respectively), regarding their expectation that the action will be accepted or complied with. In doing so, we illustrate that, as part of the design of requests and offers, participants rely on more granular distinctions than a simple binary between interrogative and declarative morphosyntax. We conclude with a discussion of the interactional logic that undergirds the normative use of these grammatical formats, and of our findings’ implications for action formation and preference organization.

通过最小化调节动作:提供和请求服务中的句法

本研究使用来自一家修鞋店的数据,辅以来自医学和世俗背景的数据,来分析用于在交互中实现报价和请求的三种渐进式最小语法格式(即你想要…?,你要?, 和想…?)。我们认为,这种最小化倾向反映了行动发起者的立场倾向,从相对弱到强(分别),关于他们对行动将被接受或遵守的期望。在这样做的过程中,我们说明,作为请求和提议设计的一部分,参与者依赖于更细粒度的区别,而不是疑问句和声明句法之间的简单二元。最后,我们讨论了支撑这些语法格式规范使用的交互逻辑,以及我们的发现对行动形成和偏好组织的影响。(对话分析、交互语言学、提议、请求、立场、语法、形态句法)*
