mid-14th century, "place where one lives or dwells"
from Old French conversacion "behavior, life, way of life, monastic life"
Latin conversatio "frequent use, turning around, constant practical experience, moving in place"
The usage of the noun conversation is not recommended, due to the schism between the original meaning and socio-cultural usage.
See colloquy
