Responses that are
just
adequate
, if even.
The responses you give when you want something to take the hint and stop talking to you. They ask an elaborate and deep question, you say "no". And nothing more. They ask something else, you mumble "
I don care
".
Real conversation requires that you give
extended responses
(a
minimal
response
plus an
explanation
or
anecdote
, and likely return the questioner with a question of your own.
