'conversation-focused' is a compound word formed from 'conversation' and 'focused'. 'Conversation' originates from Latin 'conversatio', meaning 'living together, having dealings with others', and 'focused' comes from Latin 'focus', meaning 'hearth, fireplace'.

'Conversation' evolved from Old French 'conversacion', and 'focused' from Latin 'focus'.

Initially, 'conversation' meant 'living together', but now it refers to 'spoken exchange of thoughts'. 'Focused' has retained its meaning of 'concentrated'.
