This parenthesis could be motivated by the fact that only a month has elapsed since the wedding, and what Kerttu and her husband have received as presents is still relevant.…”

This chapter concerns the first person past tense form of the verb ajatella 'to think' as a semi-fixed expression in spoken Finnish. We examine this expression in present-day conversation and in older dialect interviews, focusing on its interactional functions, the types of complements it takes, and its patterns of morphosyntactic fixedness and morphophonetic erosion in our two datasets. We show that the verb ajatella is most frequently used in its first person past tense form, mä ajattelin että [SG1 + think-PST-1SG + COMP] 'I thought that', and as has been shown for 'think' verbs in many other languages, it is commonly used to frame stance expressions, but another frequent use in our Finnish data is in prefacing the speaker's expression of her own plans as well as proposals of joint action. Most commonly, mä ajattelin että is followed by clausal complements in our older data, while the complements are more diverse in the newer data, and the expression can also 1 Authorship is shared jointly.

We also show that while mä ajattelin että 'I thought that' occurs in our data in drastically reduced form and shows signs of morphosyntactic fixedness especially in the newer data, it cannot yet be said to have become an epistemic particle.

Signalons toutefois l'étude de Duvallon & Routarinne (2005) dans laquelle les auteurs intègrent l'analyse en bribes aixoise à une approche conversationnelle pour étudier les parenthèses dans le discours.

“…Parentheticals are said to organise information in turns and shape the participation framework (Duvallon & Routarinne 2005;Bolden 2009), which reflects the way the speakers and hearers can relate to one another as well as their orientation towards utterances. They are subsidiary activities referred to as skip-connecting, i.e.…”

International audienceBased on a video recording of conversational British English, this paper aims at describing the relation between verbal and non-verbal signals in the production process of parentheticals within the framework of Multimodal Discourse Analysis. Parentheticals are described in linguistics as side sequences interrupting linear development. Although their syntactic, prosodic and discursive characteristics have been deeply analysed, few studies have focused on the articulation of the different communicative modes in their production process. Beyond showing that gesture brings complementary information in regard to prosody, contributing to a composite collateral message, the results allow better delineation and understanding of skip-connecting phenomena as constructing coherence. Changes in the modal configuration throughout the parenthetical sequence suggest modes are dynamic and flexible resources for indexing parentheticals and their particular framing function
