Sentence: Sally knew that a conversation with Leonard was impossible due to his dependence on tecnical toys, so it would have to be another oneversation. They no longer had exchanges, they had x-boxchanges. They didn't dialogue, they monologued. Even their lovelife was virtual...virtually non-existant. She needed a real man to fill the droid-void of her present partner. Maybe she should try e-harmony???
Etymology: One (single, alone) & Conversation (the use of speech for informal exchange of views or ideas or information etc.)
