Abstract This paper discusses lists, a neglected structure, to challenge taken-for-granted assumptions about them in oral interactions. Two such assumptions are: unlike narratives, lists are perceived as centered on the delivery of objective information; and three-part lists are normative. Using Israeli and U.S.A. radio call-in shows data, this paper discusses the “Long List” – a list with more than three parts. These lists deliver their speaker’s meaning in a structure resembling stories: a “lister” delivers the “list” in a “listing” process. Listings may be explicit or implicit and may include evaluative elements. Long Lists might appear in chains, and in the Israeli data Long Lists demonstrate normative features similar to three-part lists in mundane interactions. Connecting them with their context, lists are sometimes used to emphasize media biases. The conclusion connects the Long Lists to their speech event and to poetics.

口头互动中的“长名单”

摘要本文讨论了列表（一种被忽略的结构），以在口头互动中挑战有关列表的假定假设。两个这样的假设是：与叙述不同，列表被认为以客观信息的传递为中心；清单分为三部分。本文使用以色列和美国的无线电呼入节目显示数据，讨论了“长列表”，该列表包含三个部分。这些列表以类似于故事的结构传达讲话者的意思：“列表”在“列表”过程中传达“列表”。清单可以是显式的也可以是隐式的，并且可以包括评估元素。“长列表”可能会出现在链中，并且在以色列数据中，“长列表”显示出与普通互动中的三部分列表相似的规范性特征。将他们与他们的背景联系起来，列表有时用于强调媒体偏见。结论将长名单与他们的演讲活动和诗学联系起来。
