Abstract
In an experimental study, 22 English dialogues of German speakers have been recorded and analyzed with regard to dialogue structure (break, hesitation, fragmentary sentences, corrections), syntactic constructions, lexical applications, grammar of date formulation and phonetics. Results of these analyses are a basis for future classification and labelling of dialogues for fixing appointments in the frame of the Verbmobil project. It is pointed out that non-grammatical phenomena are much more numerous and complex than in German dialogues and have to be considered in further linguistic analyses.
