Dialogue Writing Part-1

 Dialogue Writing

What is a dialogue? This sounds to be a very easy question for most of us. Someone might say that it is a group of words said in an exact manner, while someone might say that it is just a part of an act. 


But in English, this is not the case. 


What is a Dialogue? 

A dialogue is a group of words that is said by one person to another. It is just a normal conversation between two or more people. 


What is a Dialogue Writing? 

A Dialogue Writing is a systematic way in which the conversation between two people is written. The conversation might be about anything such as a discussion about a party, surprise, or exams. 




Now let's have a look at the rules to write a Dialogue Writing. 


Rules: 


1) Write the spoken words in Quotation marks. 

 

2) Use a separate sentence to write if the dialogue is too big. 

 

3) Always try to be clear at a specific point, so the reader can understand your point of view and what you want to convey through the piece of writing. 


4) Don't use too complex words, in order to make your point stand out. 


5) It must contain at least four to five dialogues of each character. 


Now let's have a look at an example of Dialogue Writing. 


Q) Write a dialogue writing between two friends about the exam preparations. 




Answer: 


James: Hi, Anne. How are you?


Anne: Hello. I am good. What about you? 


James: Same here.


Anne: When are your exams starting? 


James: From 17th March. 


Anne: My exams are starting on 22nd March. 


James: Have you completed your notes and started preparing for exams? 


Anne: Yes, I have. My notes are completed and checked, but I haven't started with Mathematics and Physics. 


James: I am done with all my notes. But I am facing a lot of difficulties in Chemistry and Computers. 


Anne: My tuition teacher has given me some practice questions for Chemistry. Do you want to practice with those questions? 


James: Yes, surely. 


Anne: Ok. I will give you my notes today in the evening. 


James: Ok. Thanks. Now I will have to rush home as I have to study. 


Anne: Ok. Will meet you in the evening. Bye. All the best for your exams. 


James: Thanks. Same to you. 


Anne: Bye. 


Now let's have a look at one more example. 


Q) Write a dialogue writing between a shopkeeper and a customer about a phone that is malfunctioning. 




Answer: 


Customer: Hello. 


Shopkeeper: Hello. Welcome to our store. 


Customer: Yes. (Coming inside the store) 


Shopkeeper: How can I help you? 


Customer: I had bought this phone from your store six days ago and it has started malfunctioning. 


Shopkeeper: Ma'am, can you please tell me what is exactly happening on your phone? 


Customer: Its video files are getting deleted by themselves and the sound is not clear. Also, it takes a very long time to get charged. 


Shopkeeper: Ok ma'am. Please can you give me your phone so that I can send it to the service center to repair it and get it done? 


Customer: Ok. By when should I collect my phone? 


Shopkeeper: Ma'am you will get it by Friday evening. 


Customer: Ok. Thanks for your cooperation.

 

Shopkeeper: It's our pleasure to help you, ma'am. 



In these two examples shown above, you can see that simples language is used. There is no use of too complex words. Also, no harsh language is used. There is clarity in both the person's point of view. Also, short sentences are used which makes it easier to understand the conversation better.
