In conversation mode, simply press the microphone for your language and start speaking. Google Translate will translate your speech and read the translation out loud. Your conversation partner can then respond in their language, and you'll hear the translation spoken back to you.

Google has said that the new Conversation mode is still in Alpha at the moment, but they are hoping to develop this feature further in the future and expand support for more languages.
