Details This study aims to present a scheme of annotation for dialogue data with respect to the topic chains of discourse entities, clause-units and moves for the purpose of understanding dialogue structure. We propose that our bottom-up approach adopting this tagging not only show useful information of spontaneous speech but can provide us with a significant clue to clarify communicative and cognitive aspects of dialogue processing from perspectives on language learning.
