Abstract

Everyday conversation is considered a collaborative genre where participants seek harmony and agreement. Unlike genres such as television talk shows or parliamentary debates, everyday conversation is not inherently confrontational, though it is not devoid of conflicts. This study examines how conflict is linguistically manifested in spontaneous conversations, based on structural, interactional, and linguistic indicators identified in the literature. A corpus of family conversations recorded with a hidden microphone is used, labeledby a participant in the conversation. The analysis compares the definition of conflict in the literature with the participants' perception, identifying areas of overlap and discrepancy, and reflecting on the undefined zones between both perspectives.
