Explanation:
Jeg kan ikke lade være med at tænke på, om det der her ligger i "conversational" er, at vedkommende har lyst til at indlede en dialog - altså forsøger at komme i snak med den anden, ved at spørge, hvem han er.

Det er muligvis helt ved siden af, men måske alligevel værd at overveje. Det vil sikkert fremgå af konteksten. Hvis det er dét, der ligger i det, kunne man f.eks. oversætte til "...tone, der opfordrede til samtale/dialog" eller "...for at komme i snak med ham".

  -> Tak! - hvorvidt det så er en rigtig fortolkning, kan konteksten forhåbentlig røbe :o)
