释义

A conversation is a talk between two or more people in which they share ideas, feelings, news, or information. It can be casual and friendly or more serious and formal.

用法与细微差别

Very common in everyday English. We usually say 'have a conversation', 'start a conversation', or 'make conversation'. 'Conversation' is broader than 'chat' and more natural than the very formal 'discussion' in daily situations.
