- The empirical finding holds across English, Tzeltal, Korean, and sign languages, establishing it as a structural regularity of conversational organization rather than a cultural convention
This sourceDingemanse and colleagues find the other-initiated repair system across a 12-language sample from 8 families including Argentine Sign Language, and argue it is a universal of human language. Dingemanse and colleagues find that three repair-initiator types, including the open request ('Huh?'), recur and are used in the same situations across all 12 languages sampled.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
