'conversational' originates from the Latin word 'conversatio', where 'con-' meant 'with' and 'versare' meant 'to turn'.

'conversatio' transformed into the Old French word 'conversation', and eventually became the modern English word 'conversation', from which 'conversational' is derived.

Initially, it meant 'living together or having dealings with others', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'relating to conversation'.
