The study of telephone communication constitutes an important aspect of pragmatics and cultural studies. Research on telephone conversation conducted in different languages have reported cultural variations (e.g. Houtkoop-Steenstra 1991; Lindstrom 1994; Pavlidou 1994; Sifianou 1989; Sun 2002, 2004). However, most of the research has focused on the opening phase of telephone calls, with the exception of a few studies (e.g. Pavlidou 1998; Sun, 1998, 2004b). Ordinary as they may seem to be, closings are a delicate matter both technically and socially, as pointed out by Levinson (1983).
