Which word means "Conversation between characters"?

• A. Dialogue
• B. Describe
• C. Essay
• D. Design

Answer: (A)

Understanding what a word means in context helps you pick it out quickly. The term for a conversation between characters is dialogue. It refers to the spoken exchanges in a story or play, where characters talk to each other and their reactions reveal personality and push the plot forward. That’s why dialogue is the best choice here—it directly captures how characters speak to one another.

Describe means to tell what something is like, often with details about appearance or features. An essay is a short piece of writing on a topic, typically presenting thoughts or arguments. Design involves planning and creating something, like a plan or blueprint. None of these convey a spoken exchange between characters in a narrative, which is what dialogue does.
