A good conversationalist knows many things. Including…

Know when to stop talking: People who talk too much can also be the ones who speak without thinking. And we all know that this can lead to embarrassing moments.

Keep up with world events: Reading a newspaper or magazine will help you come up with subject matter to discuss with others and you’ll be able to relate to other people’s discussions.

Avoid Repetitions: Stories told multiple times can be boring. If you aren’t sure about whether or not you’ve told the story before, ask “Did I tell you about Lucy’s latest escapade?”

Don’t Whisper: Whispering or talking low to one person, can denote something being kept in secret.
