Description:This study presents a new approach to the analysis of spoken language. Its aims are threefold: to make systematic use of video material in order to demonstrate that the conditions under which language is produced are crucial for its structure. Secondly, to show that timing - the moment an utterance is made in relation to the event it describes - also shapes the linguistic output, and thirdly, to show that verbless structures are an integral part of spoken language. Their occurrence can be linked to specific extra-linguistic situations and event types.
