Abstract
Knowing the strategies which listeners use to ask for speakers’ trouble sources causing breakdowns in conversations and knowing the functions of other-repair are necessary because these factors help the interlocutors gain more effectiveness in communication. Schefloff et al. [3] mentioned other-repair with such features as positions, strategies and functions of correcting the trouble sources causing communication breakdowns from the listeners. The results of this research help the listeners know how to manage when they have difficulties in hearing and understanding the information from the speakers. This paper presents and analyzes the strategies and the functions of other-repair in English and Vietnamese conversations, based on the theory of Schegloff et al. [3] with the aim to discover the similarities and differences in the strategies and the functions of repairing the trouble sources from the listeners in two languages. The results will provide learners with some useful ways to make effective conversations.
