To date, what relationship building looks like in practice remains unclear. In this conversation-analytic study, we analyze conversations between researchers from different disciplines and community members to examine relationship building in real life. We analyzed a recurring pattern in these conversations where community members provide unsolicited self-disclosures. Such self-disclosures serve as one approach through which community members establish a link between “science” and their lifeworld, aiming to build a relationship with researchers. In response, researchers generally disattended the self-disclosure but occasionally asked questions that probed deeper into community members’ self-disclosures. We discuss the implications for science communication theory and practice.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47575,"journal":{"name":"Language & Communication","volume":"102 ","pages":"Pages 30-49"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143561920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article contributes to this debate by discussing simultaneity in relation to sequentiality, a key principle characterizing human interaction. First, it examines the way simultaneity has been treated in the CA literature, highlighting both the specificity of simultaneous phenomena in social interaction and their diversity. Second, it focuses on an exemplary case of simultaneity, collectively produced choral actions. It demonstrates how participants orient to the production of simultaneous conduct, while achieving this simultaneity through the sequential organization of their actions. These actions are prepared, projected, produced and maintained in sequentially unfolding ways, achieved as such by participants. This paper argues that while simultaneity is a gloss for referring to specific temporal arrangements of conduct, sequentiality is the organizational principle securing their actual accomplishment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47575,"journal":{"name":"Language & Communication","volume":"102 ","pages":"Pages 1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143520903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mock Foreigner speech is a language ideological construct commonly used in Japanese media in the portrayal of non-native Japanese speakers of Western origin. Building on previous research of mock language varieties as ethnolinguistic boundary markers, I analyze both the representation of this figure in popular media genres, and in particular, metalinguistic discourses about the use of Mock Foreigner speech. The data in this study draws on popular media wiki entries in order to explore how media consumers understand the style and its margins. In particular, I focus on how the non-Japanese people have been represented in media over time from both a characterological and linguistic perspective, and how those representations persist today in the form of linguistic stereotypes and ideologies of foreignness. This study also demonstrates the existence of a perception gap between the imagined foreigner character (e.g. white Americans who use grammatically marked Japanese) and actual non-Japanese individuals. Mock Foreigner serves as an explicit marker of the imagined foreigner character, thus reifying the position of white foreignness as both default and linguistically saliant.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47575,"journal":{"name":"Language & Communication","volume":"101 ","pages":"Pages 58-69"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143376504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
