Minimal feedback in English (e.g., "yeah, mm hm") are common in conversation but rarely found in second-language instructional materials.

Examples of use are presented here, with attention to intonation contours and conversational context. (Adjunct ERIC Clearinghouse for ESL Literacy Education) (Author/MSE)
