10.2.2.1. Different turn taking signals
The interlocutors might convey some signals during the conversation. If an active interlocutor ends the turn and wants to signal that the addressee can take over the turn, these signals are analyzed as turn-yielding signals [Pragmatics 10.2.2.2]. If an active interlocutor has not ended the turn yet and is not willing to give the turn, this interlocutor might give signals indicating this reason, which are elaborated under turn-taking (attempt-suppression) signals [Pragmatics 10.2.2]. The nonactive interlocutors might add comments or give feedback about the utterances which are currently being provided. These are backchannel signals [Pragmatics 10.3].
