Hey Aspirant!

Dialogue is an effective way of demonstrating who your character is by revealing their personality through what they say and how they say it, but fictional dialogue is different from everyday real life.

Dialogue changes the flow of the narrative, it increases pace and gives the narrative a sense of immediacy. It provides texture and depth and provides a deeper insight into the character. The reader is able to interpret the kind of people your characters are through their dialogue and therefore determine what sort of personalities they have. This in turn helps them empathies with your characters.

Premchand was a great revolutionary storyteller, Most of his dialogue for revealing a character were interesting and pretty different from other authors.

Difference with real life dialogue and fictional dialogue is that with fictional dialogue you have to cut out the mundane, the waffle and the boring bits and get to the very essence of your characters and story.
