Abstract

Conversation analysis, as one of the subsets of discourse analysis, encompasses points and details that are very helpful in analyzing texts. In conversations, the relationship between the participants of the dialogue and the issue is in such a way that the characters exhibit themselves more; and it is formulated in such a way that the worldview, perspective and approach of the characters and many other traits are revealed rather explicitly. The present study attempts to investigate the visible and hidden layers of the conversation with components such as the way the conversation parties interact, the beginning and end of the conversation, turn taking, feedback and correction in conversations and similar instances. This study also aims to achieve other aspects of implication and meaning not obvious to the audience at first glance, since the words and texts in different contexts carry a set of meanings and interpretations. Based on what was mentioned, in this research, the relationships on the sides of the dialogue, the way of using and choosing words and the interaction of the characters according to their status and social levels are examined discursively and a substantial reading of the text is presented as well.
