Abstract

In natural language dialogue, the way a responder `takes up' theinitiative of a participant, largely influences the further courseof the dialogue. This uptake mechanism can be understood as anegotiation at a meta level: an initiative counts as a bid of adialogue game; an appropriate response counts as an acceptance ofthe bid. We propose to extend this account of uptake to otherconventional joint activities besides dialogue. We show that for anuptake mechanism to be effective, a joint activity must becharacterisable in terms of initiatives and responses, withprojection rules that indicate what initiatives count as a bid for ajoint action, and appropriateness rules that indicate what responsescount as appropriate.
