Subject: Greetings Query

As most of us know, Arabs, in general, have an elaborate way of greeting
each another.  Could anyone suggest authors and studies on this discourse
phenomenon, specifically in terms of "rules" for conversational
turn-taking?

My question comes after looking at the Conversation Analysis
approach (Sacks, Schegloff, & Jefferson 1974).

all the best,

Benjamin Troutman
