I'm a conversation analyst. Conversation analysis is an amazing tool for research, and a completely unique perspective on language. Watch my videos to geek out with me about language, interaction, and how we communicate.
Great video! It's been very helpful :) Does anyone know if foreign accents should be included in the transcriptions? For example a Spanish person speaking in English with a Spanish accent. Thank you!
Most of the content in conversation analysis is still way over my head and I had a hard time following the video. I enjoy this kind of discomfort because it makes me learn faster. Thanks, Em!
Hello! How do you transcribe conversation which involves taboo expressions? Or what symbols will the analyst use to cover those up to avoid vulgarity especially when it is going to use in academic papers?
Fascinating. Now I’m thinking of how this applies to Zoom meetings where there’s a slight delay, and to “manterrupting” in work meetings, and of course I’m also thinking about Frozen, and sandwiches… thanks Em!
