One exchange (a single “speech”) in a real or imaginary conversation between two or more entities, for example, between an interviewer and the person being interviewed, between a nurse (or doctor) and a patient, between a person and a computer, etc. Each time a new speaker takes over, a new <speech> starts, which names the speaker (<speaker>) and then contains one or more paragraphs (<p>) that hold what speaker said.
A speech is not part of any particular larger element structure; a speech is just one identified fragment of the whole conversation.
