The qualitative analysis of media images and\u0000 comments on celebratory performances shows that pre-planned, creative celebrations, including trademarks or signatures, which have\u0000 recently overshadowed spontaneous, conventionalized displays of affect, take the form of interactional gestures of different\u0000 types: performatives, regulators, pointing, icons, metaphors, pantomime, emblems or signs, as well as the form of compositions of\u0000 gestures, such as icons and pointing. During the match, gestures of all the above types serve to display affects and take on other\u0000 new functions. Also, even gestures like regulators, identified in literature as conversational ones, are used without the\u0000 accompanying speech. A disintegrated speech context for the interpretation of the meaning and reference of celebratory gestures is\u0000 provided in after-match media discourse.","PeriodicalId":35125,"journal":{"name":"Gesture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41961285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We know that speakers make changes in their speech when addressing a non-native speaker, called Foreigner Talk (Ferguson, 1975) to make their speech more comprehensible. However, whether and how gestures are also modified along with speech has hardly been addressed in the literature. In this study, we examined the speech and gesture of future teachers of French in a word explanation task to see what types of adjustments they made when explaining a word to a native speaker and a non-native speaker. We had ten future teachers of French explain the same 12 words to a native and a non-native speaker of French and compared the explanations. We found that the future teachers produced significantly more gestures, significantly longer gestures in duration, significantly more illustrative (iconic and deictic) gestures, and significantly larger gestures when addressing a non-native interlocutor. These results show that native speakers make not only speech adjustments but also gesture adjustments in addressing non-native speakers.","PeriodicalId":35125,"journal":{"name":"Gesture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45538923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although non-verbal behavior is recognized to add non-redundant information and social interaction is not merely\u0000 recognized as the transmission of words and sentences, the evidence regarding grammatical/linguistic interlinks between verbal and\u0000 non-verbal concepts are vague and limited to restricted domains. This is even more evident when non-verbal behavior acts in the\u0000 foreground but contributes to the structure and organization of the discourse. This research focuses on investigating the\u0000 multimodal nature of discourse markers by observing their linguistic and paralinguistic properties in informal discourse. We\u0000 perform a quantitative analysis with case studies for representative cases. The results show that discourse markers and background\u0000 non-verbal behavior tend to follow a similar functionality in interaction. Therefore, by examining them together, one gains more\u0000 insight into their true intent despite the high multifunctionality of both non-verbal behavior and DMs.","PeriodicalId":35125,"journal":{"name":"Gesture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44251767","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
