Dialogue breaks up the narration and can add depth to characters. Some of the things a writer can convey through dialogue are:
- Character Personality - How a character speaks can reveal their background, age, education, and emotional state.
- Conflict - Dialogue can showcase disagreements, misunderstandings, or differing viewpoints, creating tension in the story.
- Relationships - The way characters interact through dialogue can indicate their relationships, whether they are friends, enemies, lovers, or strangers.
- Exposition - Dialogue can provide important information about the plot, setting, or context without the need for lengthy narration.
