Abstract
It is very important for a Japanese language learner to have adequate skills to participate in Japanese casual conversations, as it influences on creating and expanding the human network in the target languagesociety. In this paper, casual conversation in contact situation held by three women from Taiwan, China and Japan is compared to the casual talks held by three pairs of female native speakers of Japanese. As the result, the sequence organizations themselves are not very different from one another, however, less frequent evaluation and narrative are observed in the contact situation than in the native speakers'conversations.
