Conversation in the Lobby
Two travelers discuss the relative merits of traditional versus modern hotel interiors.
Article notes
This dialog is a great example of a conversation between two people that are not quite peers. Notice that, although they must be friends since they are traveling together for pleasure, one uses polite verbs while the other uses informals. From this, we can learn something about their relationship. One is most likely a little older or more senior in some other way.
