Computer protocols are a good analogy for a conversation.

This is also a Systems Exchange for the presumed benefit of both systems.

More Detail

 The meaning of Hello or Hola or HELO

All communication protocols start with declaring you are open to communicate and hint at what language we communicate in.

 Authenticate each party

Is the other person/computer safe to talk to? What is their status? What information can be shared with them?

 Information is bidirectionally exchanged

Just like in human Conversation

 Narratives/Language/Ideas must be compatible for the conversation to work

If a computer isn’t running software which is compatible then the conversation doesn’t work.

Likewise two humans that don’t have compatible language, ideas and beliefs about the subject matter in kind have a hard job communicating with each other.
