This study investigates the rarely researched area of communicative breakdown in interviews between a native speaker of English and mainly Thai students. Taking a methodological approach derived partially from research in spoken discourse analysis, the coded interview data revealed fundamentally that most breakdown was caused by the use of linguistically challenging lexis and of concepts of which students may have lacked awareness. In general, though, it became clear that such a surface-level interactional analysis based on a quantitative codification of the data on its own did not suffice in explaining everything about the breakdown sequences. To enable a more complete picture to be drawn for this purpose, a qualitative supplement to the data analysis was added covering elements of Thai culture and context in the interview setting. This triangulation of quantitative and qualitative analyses showed the complementary nature of surface-level coding of interaction and selected socio-cultural criteria in small-scale research.
