This dissertation examines deployment of sound symbolic words (SSWs), also known as mimetics and ideophones, in Japanese face-to-face interaction. By analyzing data from folktales, narratives, and written texts, for example, a large number of previous studies investigated SSWs across languages, and attempted to pin down the meaning of each instance of an SSW. One intriguing fact is that they have identified intrinsic semantic characteristics of SSWs which are contrasting, such as "vivid" (e.g., Doke, 1935; Kita, 1997; Schourup, 1993) and "specific" (e.g., Childs, 1994) as opposed to "ambiguous" (Noss, 2003) and "elusive" (Bartens, 2000). Further, scholars found that SSWs are "quintessentially social" (Childs, 1994:63) and "the closest linguistic substitute for a non-verbal, physical act" (Kunene, 2001:183), emphasizing the importance of taking the context of use into consideration, yet no studies have examined SSWs in face-to-face interaction, except for Dingemanse (2011, 2013, 2014).

520 $a This dissertation examines deployment of sound symbolic words (SSWs), also known as mimetics and ideophones, in Japanese face-to-face interaction. By analyzing data from folktales, narratives, and written texts, for example, a large number of previous studies investigated SSWs across languages, and attempted to pin down the meaning of each instance of an SSW. One intriguing fact is that they have identified intrinsic semantic characteristics of SSWs which are contrasting, such as "vivid" (e.g., Doke, 1935; Kita, 1997; Schourup, 1993) and "specific" (e.g., Childs, 1994) as opposed to "ambiguous" (Noss, 2003) and "elusive" (Bartens, 2000).

520 $a Through close examination of naturally occurring conversation, this study sheds light on how deployment of SSWs operates in social interaction. Primarily informed by gesture researchers such as Adam Kendon and David McNeill who described speakers' bodily conduct co-occurring during their spontaneous speech, the study first examines how turns that incorporate SSWs are constructed, focusing on occurrences of various multimodal resources, such as hand gestures and vocal gestures. Building on this analytical foundation, it further examines what speakers can achieve through the deployment of SSWs in interaction. More specifically, one of the analytical chapters demonstrates how SSWs work as a resource to depict and concretize objects that do not exist in the interactional space. The chapter then demonstrates that SSWs can serve as a provisional element in word search activities. Another analytical chapter reveals how SSWs serve as a resource to render speakers' emotional stances which had not been clearly expressed by the use of linguistic resources other than SSWs. Moment-by-moment analyses further show how the contrastive semantic characteristics introduced above can evolve over the course of the interaction. This study highlights the fluid and dynamic nature of SSWs, and provides empirical analyses of actual uses of SSWs, which are believed to be found in all world languages.
