N2  - "Dialogues in French and English" by William Caxton is a historical text that was likely written in the late 15th century. This work consists of a collection of colloquial phrases and dialogues intended to facilitate communication between French and English speakers, representing an adaptation from a fourteenth-century book of dialogues in French and Flemish. Its goal appears to be serving as a practical vocabulary for those wishing to learn the languages through everyday dialogue.  At the start of the dialogue, the text sets the framework for its instructional purpose, emphasizing that learning this material is beneficial for travellers and others seeking linguistic proficiency. The opening portion outlines various themes, such as salutations and common expressions related to everyday life and commerce. It presents dialogues demonstrating how to greet someone, inquire about their well-being, and navigate social interactions, such as taking leave and addressing individuals of different social standings, which are essential for someone engaging with different cultural contexts.
