Description: A pre-beginning of a turn may refer to elements of a turn-constructional unit (TCU) which project the start of an upcoming turn, without having the properties of recognizable turn beginnings (Schegloff 1996; see also Sacks, et al. 1974, who use the term ‘pre-starts’). In other words, pre-beginning elements do not (yet) launch a TCU, which bears the actual contribution of the turn, and thus occur before turn-initial position (Heritage 2013).
