Answer 1

Hint: A dialogue or conversation between two people is always written in the present tense form of the verb. A conversation between two people focuses on-

Relationship highlighted by the two people

The theme or the topic of the conversation

The situation or setting in which the two people are placed together

Complete answer:
Dialogues are an important tool of communication, as they disclose the conversation between two people. Also, if we only include a single person in a conversation or dialogue, it is known as a ‘monologue’.
Let’s write a dialogue between Gokul and the salesman-
Salesman- Good evening, sir.
Gokul- Good evening.
Salesman- Can I help you with something?
Gokul- Yes, I am looking for a pair of slippers.
Salesman- Alright, is there any specific brand you’re looking for?
Gokul- Yes, I saw an advertisement for Nike slippers in the newspaper last night.
Salesman- Ah, yes. I remember I will show you the collection of the new Nike slippers. Please, follow me.
Gokul- Sure, thank you.
Salesman- You can choose the color and the style. Thereafter, I’ll help you find the correct size.
Gokul- I like this black one, can you find size 9 in this particular pair?
Salesman- Yes sir. Let me check.
Gokul- Thank you.
Salesman- Here, you can try these on and take a walk in them.
Gokul- These slippers are a perfect fit. I’d like to buy them.
Salesman- I would do the billing for you. Kindly, reach the billing counter.
(Gokul reaches the billing counter and pays the bill)
Salesman- Thank you for visiting us! Please do come again.
Gokul- Definitely, this is one of the best shoe shops I know.

Note: Whenever you need to write about an action or situation other than the conversation, you can mention it in brackets.
