converser

noun

1. One who converses.

   “If he made transcendental distinctions, he fortified himself by drawing all his illustrations from sources disdained by orators and polite conversers; from mares and puppies; from pitchers and soup-ladles; from cooks and criers; the shops of potters, horse-doctors, butchers, and fishmongers.”

   “I can't fathom how it will be to communicate with no one but myself. Of course the radio is no converser at that distance, with those mountains.”
