A: conversation involves speaking. sentence involves written words.

A: When used in this way, "about" and "toward" both mean the same thing. "Toward" is just more formal. Because of this, there is no definite rule for using "about" or "toward" in this type of case. Either can be used in casual conversation, but "about" is much more common in both formal and informal conversations. If you do end up using "toward" instead of "about" in a casual conversation, it would still be natural and would not be wrong.

A: No difference in meaning, although the second sentence should be "I just got distracted by our conversation"

A: Both are similar words that translate to 会話, but are used differently. :)

Please look at this example. Two people are talking about soccer.

NG "They are having a dialogue about soccer." This is not natural. Instead, try this:

◎ "They are having a conversation about soccer."

一方でDialogueというのは文学的なんだと思う。I think the word "dialogue" is for conversation in literature or performing arts (acting, TV, movie), etc.

◎ "Please read the dialogue from the script out loud."

I hope this makes sense :) sorry, my Japanese isn't so good!

Your grammar was fine for the most part. I just changed a few things to make them sound more natural. Also, when booking a flight, making an appointment, etc. over the phone, it’s important to spell your name so that the person types/writes it correctly. Everyone knows how to spell the name Alice, but Tsai is not a common last name in the US. So it’s very likely to be misspelled. That’s why I changed that part of the conversation.

A: Yes it can. It implies that you are going somewhere to see if it’s a place you want to check out
