To support such occasion of non-native speaker, initial evaluation was investigated that utilized audio and text information in real-time conversation. This method provided a certain usefulness such as mutual understanding amongst the two, however the effect of the method on conversation was not investigate reported in previous works. Hence, In this paper we examined it the effect to articulate how the proposed method worked in conversation especially in relationship between utterance and text input. Consequently it was found that text input was conducted significantly large number in NS turn-taking, and NS utterance was typed significantly higher ratio out of total number of text input.
