Abstract	This study of the linguistic acts of assenting and confirming is inspired by an attempt to create instructional materials for the learning of spoken English as a second language, with communicative competence as a goal. Observations are based on several hours of informal conversation between native speakers of English, mostly students and teachers. The study is divided into two main parts: (1) a definition of assent and confirmation, and (2) an examination of the linguistic forms used. The act of assenting is defined as an optional verbal act with which speaker B overtly expresses the fact that he could have said exactly what speaker A said. Confirmation is defined the same way, but differs in being non-optional. These definitions are based on an analysis of discourse structure and on an examination of contextual factors such as the relationship between participants and shared knowledge. A series of rules for the use of these acts is proposed. (CLK)
