Dialogue gives a story color, makes it exciting and moves it forward.
Romeo: O, wilt thou leave me so unsatisfied?Juliet: What satisfaction canst thou have tonight?Romeo: The exchange of thy love's faithful vows for mine.So what goes into writing effective dialogue?Well, there are social skills: making friends, solving conflicts, being pleasant and polite.常规的三大社交技巧：交朋友，化解冲突，表现得彬彬有礼。We won't be using any of those today. Instead, we'll be working on, let's call them "anti-social skills."但是我们今天不讨论这些。我们今天要讨论的是——“反社交技巧”。If you're a writer, you may already have a few of these.The first is eavesdropping.If you're riding a bus and hear an interesting conversation, you could write it all down.如果你在乘车时听到有趣的对话，应该把它们都记下来。Of course, when you write fiction, you're not describing real people, you're making up characters.But sometimes the words you overhear can give you ideas."I did not," says one person."I saw you," the other replies.Who might be saying those words?Maybe it's two kids in a class, and the boy thinks the girl pushed him.Maybe it's a couple, but one of them is a vampire, and the woman vampire saw the man flirting with a zombie. Or maybe not.也许是一对夫妻，妻子是吸血鬼，她看到丈夫与一个僵尸调情。还有更多可能性。Maybe the characters are a teenager and his mother, and they're supposed to be vegetarians, but the mother saw him eating a burger.比如是儿子和母亲间的对话，他们是素食主义者，但妈妈看到儿子偷吃了汉堡。So let's say you've decided on some characters.This is anti-social skill number two: start pretending they're real.What are they like? Where are they from? What music do they listen to?Spend some time with them.If you're on a bus, think about what they might be doing if they were there too.Would they talk on the phone, listen to music, draw pictures, sleep?What we say depends on who we are.An older person might speak differently than a younger person.Someone from the south might speak differently than someone from the north.Once you know your characters, you can figure out how they talk.At this stage, it's helpful to use anti-social skill number three: muttering to yourself.When you speak your character's words, you can hear whether they sound natural, and fix them if necessary.念出角色的台词之后，你就会发现不妥之处然后对台词进行修改。Remember, most people are usually pretty informal when they speak.They use simple language and contractions.So, "Do not attempt to lie to me" sounds more natural as "Don't try to lie to me."因此，“别想骗我”比“不要想对我撒谎”听上去自然。Also keep it short. People tend to speak in short bursts, not lengthy speeches.人物对话还应该保持简短。人们讲话时句子都短小精炼而非长篇大论。And let the dialogue do the work. Ask yourself: do I really need that adverb?记得多用对话的形式。此外，再反问自己：这句话真的需要副词吗？For instance, "'Your money or your life,' she said threateningly."Here, "threateningly" is redundant, so you can get rid of it.But if the words and the actions don't match, an adverb can be helpful."'Your money or your life,' she said lovingly."So, to recap: First, eavesdrop. Next, pretend imaginary people are real.Finally, mutter to yourself, and write it all down.You already have everything you need.This is fictional dialogue, or "How to Hear Voices in Your Head."这是虚构的对话，也叫做“如何听到脑内的声音”。
