    「conversation」是兩個人以上「你一句我一句」的輕鬆交談，重點在雙向來回，不是一個人講個不停。跟 talk 很接近，但 conversation 更強調「彼此都有在說、有在聽」；比 chat 正式一點，比 discussion（為了某個議題討論）更日常、更隨意。

core核心畫面

You can picture conversation as two or more people sitting together and passing words back and forth — one talks, the other answers, and in that they share news, feelings, and ideas. It is not one person making a speech; the picture is the exchange itself, the words travelling both ways.

可以把 conversation 想成兩個或更多人坐在一起，把話語你來我往地遞給彼此——一個說，另一個回，在這一來一往之間分享消息、心情和想法。它不是一個人在台上講話；核心畫面比較像這種「交換」本身，話語往兩邊來回地走。
