Abstract:

The study examines the function of queries in oral communication. Itdevelops a typology of query forms that can be differentiated depending onthe preceding communication and the respective inquiring function. Thestudy shows that, among others, the functions of queries are to help solvecomprehension and expectation problems, as well as to store information. Incounseling interviews, queries can be found especially at the interfacebetween the presentation of the problem and the development of thesolution, and it is here that they take on important functions inconducting conversation. The discourse-linguistic study is based onextensive, empirical language data.
