First, the best way to start a conversation is to inquire about the other person. Make them feel good by asking about them. In English, there is an acronym you can use (H-E-L-P) that has been around for a long time. Start a conversation with words that start with “H” first, like “health,” “home,” etc. And then move on to “E” words, etc. Have fun!!
Dale Carnegie has a beautiful book about this matter: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4865.How_to_Win_Friends_...
