Okay | It started um summer [laughing] of nineteen [laughing] | summer of nineteen ninety-six | Just like any other summer | I went to Spain with my family | and for the months of June and July and August | and I was sixteen. | I was starting to discover kind of girls and stuff | and um | we really didn’t do much | me and friends there. | We just… | When we got bored | we’d go to this river and uh | just chill at the river | and sometimes like cool off in the river and stuff |and there were usually people our age there | just chilling …

2 a The implication in the first utterance is that they collect Swedish furniture and Swedish ceramics, while in the second they collect Swedish furniture, and ceramics in general.

c Depending on which tone unit it forms a part of, often can modify either drink or have. In the first sentence, drivers who drink have accidents often. In the second sentence, those drivers that often drink have accidents.

d In the first utterance, the way she went to answer the phone was hopeful. Hopefully is an adverb qualifying the verb went. In the second utterance, the speaker is expressing the hope that she went to answer the phone. Hopefully is a disjunct, expressing the speaker’s opinion about the whole sentence it is attached to.

e In the first utterance, dancing with music playing in the background is preferred – rather than dancing without music. In the second, dancing is preferred, rather than music.

f In the first utterance, I married him, but for reasons other than his parents. In the second, I didn’t marry him at all, the reason being his parents.

g The fact that the first reply consists of one tone unit suggests that the speaker means I don’t know. In the second reply, the division into two units suggests the speaker means I don’t. No.
