As part of our ongoing work on grounding in dialogue, we present a corpus-based investigation of intention-level clarification requests.We propose to refine existing theories of grounding by considering two distinct types of intention-related conversational problems: intention recognition and intention adoption.This distinction is backed-up by an annotation experiment conducted on a corpus assembled with a novel method for automatically retrieving potential requests for clarification.
