However, over time the use of ideas and methods from conversation analysis for linguistic research questions grew.
With the improvement of technology, linguists have started to focus on spoken language as well due to its functions in intonation and transcription system.
The next step which made interactional linguistics develop was the important work on conversation analysis.
[10] Further, the topic of normativity in a discourse or a social norm both contribute to how a conversation functions.
[6] Various scholars have or are attempting to write grammar books from an interactional linguistic perspective, for languages such as Alto Perené[14] and Danish (See Samtalegrammatik.dk).
[17] Interactional linguistics does not subscribe to the strict separation of competence and performance of generative grammar.
