This study presents a functional analysis of the use of Japanese connective dakara 'therefore/so' in naturally occurring conversations, taking on an interaction-and-grammar approach to grammar (See Schegloff, Ochs, & Thompson, 1996). The close examination of its use in everyday interactions reveals that dakara is more than just a consequential connective as has been widely believed; it also displays interaction-oriented functions at the discourse level. Subsequently, dakara's multifunctionality is examined in relation to a type of diachronic language changing process---grammaticization. Based on a careful examination, the paper argues that dakara is not an example of grammaticization, but of a more general semantic change---pragmaticization. Such findings confirm the ever-changing nature of language, which, in turn, underscores the importance of studying grammar in its natural home environment, that is, everyday conversation.
