Smalltalk

Smalltalk is a type of conversation that you can have with someone else. It involves talking about things that are not too important, like what you did today, what the weather is like, or what's new with your friends. It helps build a relationship with the person you're talking to and can help keep a conversation going. Smalltalk is important because it helps break the ice and can help make people more comfortable talking to each other.
