This paper discusses the forms and functions of the German response particle  jein  – a blend of  ja  and  nein  – in spoken conversation and in written texts. It is shown that in German spoken conversation,  jein  is realized as a sequentially expanding second part of an adjacency pair which refers back to the preceding turn as the first part (usually, but not necessarily a question) and indicates that more conversational work needs to be done before the conditional relevance of the first pair part is successfully resolved. In written newspaper articles, by contrast,  jein  is a rather stylistic and rhetoric means to establish the impression of argumentative balance, to condense complex issues and to reflect them in a linguistically innovative way. Since the written  jein  also allows for iconic plays with its graphematic gestalt to distinguish between a more or less ‘disagreeing’  jein ,  jein  can be analyzed as a formally and functionally fully-fledged communicative means, regardless of whether it is used in spoken conversation or in written texts: Even though its spoken and written forms and functions are related to each other, the written  jein  is not simply a secondary reproduction of the spoken  jein .
