Dialogue Dialogue is the conversation between characters in a story. When an author uses dialogue the characters seem more real. We learn more about the characters by what they say and how they say it. Dialogue also helps move the story along.
Dialogue Look at the following line of dialog and we will talk about all the parts. Billy asked, “Where is my backpack?” “I haven't seen it,” his dad answered. Notice that each speaker gets a new paragraph, quotation marks around their exact words, a tag line and a comma separating the quote from the tag line.
Dialogue The tag line tells who is speaking. A comma separates the tag line and what they are saying. Billy asked, “Where is my backpack?” “I haven't seen it,” his dad answered. Quotation marks go before and after the exact words.
