I need to write a dialogue using a neutral register. Part 1.

We use General (neutral) introductions for people we might never meet again, for meetings which are not very important, or for meeting people like ourselves for instance the people we will work with.
*******************************
1. Context: Alex is visiting his friend Sam. In the elevator, they run into Sam's neighbor, David.

· Sam: «Oh, hello David. Alex, this is David, he lives on the fourth floor. David, this is my friend, Alex. He’s in town for a few days.»
· David: «Hello Alex. It's nice to meet you. What brings you to the city?»
· Alex: «Hello David. Nice to meet you too. Just visiting and enjoying a change of scenery.»
· David: «I hope you enjoy your stay.»
· Alex: «Thank you, I’m sure I will.»
· (The elevator stops)
· David: «Well, this is my floor. It was nice meeting you, Alex.»
· Alex: «You too. Have a good day.»

Context:

Alex is visiting his friend Sam.

In the elevator, theyAlex and Sam run into Sam's neighbor, David.

"They" is vague. Specify who they are.

· Sam: «"Oh, hello David.

In English, we use these quotation marks: " "

Alex, this is David, h. He lives on the fourth floor.

David, this is my friend, Alex.

He’s in town for a few days.»"

· David: «"Hello Alex.

It's nice to meet you.

What brings you to the city?»"

· Alex: «"Hello David.

Nice to meet you too.

JI'm just visiting and enjoying a change of scenery.»"

Your sentence here lacks a subject and verb. Therefore, it's a sentence fragment. While this may happen conversationally, it's good practice to always write in full sentences. Therefore: "I'm just visiting and enjoying a change of scenery."

· David: «"I hope you enjoy your stay.»"

· Alex: «"Thank you, I’m sure I will.»"

· (The elevator stops)

· David: «"Well, this is my floor.

It was nice meeting you, Alex.»"

· Alex: «"You too.

Have a good day.»"

Feedback

Great job! Very representative of a casual conversation between strangers in English. Just remember to use these quotation marks: " "
