Turn-taking Strategies in Internet Chatrooms
Original language description
The language of the Internet Relay Chat (further IRC), which means instant synchronous conversation on the Internet, attracts attention of linguists thanks to its world-wide usage and massive development. The article briefly evaluates and discusses the language of this media from the point of view of turn-taking strategies. A major concern is how chat participants use the language that is determined by specific conditions of an Internet chatroom. These conditions are anonymity, exclusively text-based interaction and the absence of audio-visual cues. A model of turn-taking in a spoken conversation is used and applied to the Internet chatting. Various strategies are investigated and compared, qualitative and quantitative analyses are carried out to determine the relationship between individual turn-taking strategies. In conclusion, the summary is made of the findings with respect to the distinctive character of the medium.
