| Summary: | This article presents the results of a research project supported in socio-pragmatic
theoretical references, such as politeness and rudeness. Its main purpose was to identify the
most common conversational strategies between tenth graders from educational institutions
of Nobsa and Cómbita (Boyacá, Colombia), in order to interpret some of the comradeship
strategies used by these students in their day-to-day conversations. A qualitative approach
based on Conversational Analysis was implemented, coming from the field of Speech
Ethnography. The research process was built upon three fundamental bases: the diagnosis,
information gathering and implementation of instruments phase, and the phase of analysis
and interpretation of the obtained data. The outcome revealed some of the most popular
conversational strategies and treatment formulas used by the teenagers in informal contexts,
which help them to establish a certain degree of fellowship amongst themselves.
