8. , Discourse Analysis

In Discourse analysis Birmingham UK style - when is a response an R
move or an F move.
eg
I (el) Can we move on to the next point
R/F yes of course
Is the granting of permissin here a sort of feedback/ follow up
or is it response move. This ought to be basic but the categories
are not clear cut I find.
Is ayone else out there usng Disc Analysis - or
any more rigorous system than conversation analysis
Looking forward to a response!

A question for David Denison:
Please define "curate's-eggy" for your American readers.
Thanks,

Actually, what follows is a by-product of the abundant
literature generated by queries on Linguistic novels, etc.
Throughout the replies and commentaries there is a recurring
way of referring to authors or characters as "X is a linguist"
or "X is not really a linguist". I wonder if anyone would care
to share their thoughts about what, in this day and age,
constitutes "a linguist", and how one can tell a linguist form
a non-linguist. (I meant "from" not "form").
