  Abstract:  “When subordination is in somebody else’s turn”. If in the making of grammatical knowledge authentic interlocutive perfomances had been taken as its starting point in the same way as monolocutive statements have been (the latter, by the way, usually coined ad hoc), the outcome would have been different. Here we explore the great explanatory power of subordinate clauses housed in sentential structures known as co-constructions (Spanish co-construcciones). It has been possible to account for their study only when a lot of attention has been devoted to colloquial conversation and the strong belief that both syntax and prosody conflated make up the meaning of the statements, sentential or not. To reconsider their analysis from the viewpoint of the process of the utterance that produces them makes it necessary to review the meaning ascribed by scholars to the different typologies of subordination.

Keywords: subordination, discours analysis, colloquial conversation.
