This book challenges the age-old myth that women’s talk is trivial and unimportant. Drawing on a corpus of spontaneous conversation between friends, Jennifer Coates demonstrates the richness and complexity of the language used in such talk, focusing on women’s use of hedges, questions and repetition.
