| summary | This talk considers what can be gained through employing conversation analysis to the study of young children’s conversational skills. In conversation analysis and ethnomethodology we are reminded that participants in any actual setting accomplish their knowledge of it `only in the doing', which is done `skilfully, reliably, uniformly ....and (as) an unaccountable matter' (Fox, 2006). This presentation will examine extracts recorded during the period when one child was learning those ‘members methods’ germane to recognising and producing questions and answers. Discussion focuses on describing the circumstances involved in learning such practices, moving from early instances of ‘questions as requests’ through ‘imitative questioning’ and, by age 3, to engaging in the ‘doing formulating’ of question-answer practices.
