Abstract;In this paper we propose an algorithm that can be used by talking systems to create a list of natural replies to a user's utterance starting any dialog without restricting any domain. In our method we use Internet resources, commonsense processing and confront them with affective features to achieve a linguistic reaction of the highest naturalness as possible. We briefly introduce our approach to the dialog processing itself and suggest the need for investigating Pavlovian-like human linguistic behaviors. (author abst.)
