Characteristics of Formal Dialogue

  • The interventions are performed following a particular order.

Formal Dialogue Structure

  • Opening: Beginning the dialogue with a salutation and the presentation of the theme.
  • Development: The core of the conversation.
  • Farewell: End of the dialogue. Formulas are used for thanks and goodbye.

The Interview
