| Popis: | This essay is based on previous research in the field of linguistics and discourse analysis and on analysis of a few excerpts from an American morning talk show Live! With Kelly and Michael. This paper focuses on pointing out mistakes in turn talking conversation model that indicate dominance in speech. After giving a brief summary of terms and definitions that are important for understanding the rules of a successful turn talking conversation model, this paper will examine the frequency of interruptions and other topic management instances as a possible sign of dominance performed by either female or male host of the said morning show.
