During the reception of guests at home, unexpectedly for all there is an awkward silence and there is nothing to worry about. In such an uncomfortable moment for everyone, you can treat everyone with tea and cake and the conversation will resume again.

The conduct of a discussion is a great art, which not everyone can lead. They will be included in the discussion at once, while specifying what views the discussing about the submitted topics that have become the subject for discussion. To defend their positions, it is necessary to give their undeniable facts about which the interlocutor does not know.

Very often you can discuss topics about the appearance of familiar people, do not support such conversations, as they are incorrect.

In small companies, you do not need to start a conversation with those that will be incomprehensible to your interlocutors, it's very impolite, and you should not talk with hints that only some people will understand. If there are fewer than seven people in the company, you need to maintain a general conversation topic, not other individual conversations. Do not talk with other people in foreign languages ​​that your interlocutors do not speak.

It is not very nice to interrupt interlocutors during a conversation, especially if a person is elderly. Do not tell a storyteller, correct mistakes in words, end a phrase for it.

Do not ask your partner about his illnesses, even if he noticed that he was not feeling well recently or had previously been in the hospital. If the interlocutor wishes, he will tell about his illness himself.

Do not ask people who and how much they earn - it's very ugly. It is completely incorrect to ask married women or girls about their marriage or why they do not marry, wonder about this and generally start a conversation on such topics.

If a person leaves without explanation or refers to employment, do not ask for detailed explanations from him. If you are told the reason for leaving, you do not need to dissuade him and do not try to give advice.

It is necessary to talk calmly, confidently and not loudly, but very categorically at the same time, without entering into discussions. At the said compliment, respond with a short phrase.

On a funny and anecdote and tactlessness it is worth reacting calmly, a minute of silence after such statements acts very well, and after a couple of minutes someone should start a conversation on a different topic. If a person continues to tell his tactless and anecdotes and jokes that can lead other people to absolute confusion, then one of the interlocutors should stop him.

Do not tell too many anecdotes, while not letting people come to their senses. It is better to tell anecdotes about a topic, unobtrusive and funny. A man trying to flash his mind and witty stupid jokes, in most cases produce a bad impression on others.

You need to be able not only to talk, but also to listen. Do not look at the interlocutor with "renounced" eyes, in which your absent-mindedness and worries may be reflected. When a person tells you something, it's ugly to be distracted by other people, to look away, rummage in a bag, all the time to look at your watch or distract your attention to watching TV. It is necessary to look at the interlocutor with interest and from time to time to insert remarks thus emphasizing that such conversation is very interesting to you. If the topic of the conversation you have already heard, then immediately it is worth noting "Yes, I already heard it and I know about it", then not to break my interlocutor. Polite and cultured person, never during a conversation will not interrupt the story of another person, even if he has heard it many times already.

To girls and boys who are already 18 years old, you should turn to "you". Already with a familiar person you can start talking on "you", only after you make sure that your interlocutor is interested in this.

Mimics and gestures are also very important during the conversation, with which our speech becomes more clear and expressive. Your gestures should be expressive and clearly honed, but the main thing is not to overdo it with your gesticulations.
