Answer:
Sherry Turkle used the phrase "partisan for conversation" to prove or bring out her argument about the lack of an inter-personal manual, a face-to-face conversation between humans, and the increased dependence on technology.
Explanation:
In her informational text "The Flight From Conversation", Sherry Turkle describes how technology has overtaken the world and how normal, inter-personal conversations have dwindled to a mere "hi/ hello". She delves into the issue of how we are all so focused on our small bubbles and out of the real world.
In the initial paragraphs, she narrates how many of us present generations are so dependent on our phones and electronic devices that it has taken the conversation out of our lives. But despite all that, she identifies herself as a <em>"partisan for conversation"</em> alluding to her support of personal conversations and not just texts and calls through the small devices that we have on us at all times. She specifically used/ choose the word <em>"partisan"</em> because it means an avid supporter of any idea or philosophy and that is what she wants to be associated with. And by using this word, she successfully managed to bring forward her main argument- that of lack of conversation between individuals and the need to do more of that and stay away from technological connections.
