10.2.2.1. Different turn taking signals
People who hold the turn may send several cues to their interlocutors. A signer can send a turn-yielding signal alerting the addressee that she is ready to allocate the turn. Moreover, the signer can send attempt-suppressions signals showing that s/he does not intend to pass over the turn. In other cases, the signer can show within-turn signals which should evoke feedback or back-channel signals by the interlocutor.
On the other hand, the dialogue partner can send back-channel cues or turn-claiming signals in order to show her/his attitude toward the dialogical exchange. As for back-channel signals, the addressee may provide some response to the communicative contribution of the signer, without showing the intention to take the turn. On the contrary, in case of turn-claiming signals, the addressee clearly calls for taking the turn in the communicative exchange.
