It is them being rude. How you should respond depends on the context. Is it going on during "water fountain" chat or during business meetings. Is it your boss or someone at your level or below that might be competeting with you. Is it going on with your boss present or not.\nThese issues will make a difference on how you should approach this.

I would suggest just start asking people questions about themselves.  Generally people enjoy talking about themselves.  You want people to be more "open", but you need to respect their boundaries.  At my job, we talk all the time and share our lives.  But it is a very professional atmosphere.  There can be a good balance struck.\n\nBest plan of attack is to be a great communicator by listening.

I have a speech problem, and trust me... you need to ask them to repeat themselves.\n\nI talk way too fast sometimes, and I never realize it. Sometimes I say the first few words of a sentence so fast that people don't understand it. I always appreciate it when they tell me, because once I slow down they can understand me. \n\nIf you just don't say anything, they won't know that they're doing anything wrong. \nDon't be afraid to be blunt, it shows them that you care about what they have to say.

Try talking first; give them the benefit of the doubt that they don't know they're bothering you.  I always say something vaguely guilt-inducing like "I'm sure you would never intend to be loud, but these buildings are really old and the walls are thin, and I can hear a lot."

It's everywhere. There's almost no avoiding it. Just refuse to engage in that type of conversation and stick to your job. Don't become a recluse by any means, just avoid joining in their gossip. Listen if you have to but avoid commenting. Also hold your tongue when you feel like telling them they're all a bunch of adolescent idiots.

Here are some things that might help:\n\nTry a metronone and music. Find the pace that you want, set the metronone for that pace and practice talking. For presentation speech, educators have recommended the same pace as a baroque fugue.\n\nGet audio recordings of someone who you think has a good pace. Practice speaking along with them. Unabridged audio books are good because you can then also have a paper copy of the book and read aloud as the audio plays. Both are available at the library.\n\nConsider talking as a performance, not only communication. Watch your listener(s) for signs of discomfort and use this feedback to help set your speed.\n\nIf you're having a conversation, speak no more than three sentences without pausing. Wait to see if they have something to say. Then go on.\n\nHope these help. I can't refer to websites; I pulled these out of my head. I've collected tips like these over the years to use for my own development.\n\nI observed that fast speech turns people off and decreases comprehension, the opposite of what we're trying to accomplish.\n\nOne group that I go to that encourages public speaking has had this little story going around: "How long can I talk for when it's my turn?" The response: "You can talk for as long as you want to as long as you realize that nobody is listening after three minutes."\nFor fast talkers, the attention span is more like one minute.

Try to talk slowly and clearly, take your time and dont panic if they can't understand UK people can be quite rude to you if you don't speak english clearly but ignore them because they probably don't speak it properly anyway

Well, if it's really small children, it's a good idea to get at their eye level when you talk, that way you're not so intimidating. dont use unnecissarily long words, but dont dumb it down too much for them- they can think, too. Like anyone else, they want to be listened to1 If you ask them to talk about something, listen and respond to what they say! dont just set them off rembling and then direct your attention elsewhere. : D. Also, a good way to get kids to maybe stop doing something they shouldnt be is the 'I know...But...' format. Such as, 'I know you want to play for five more minutes, but our dinner will get cold if we dont leave now' \n\nI hope this helps a bit!

just ask them in a polite way first by saying "excuse me but this is important , please allow me to finish" and if they persist then you have the right to walk away from them and continue your conversation elsewhere or if they persist you can tell them in a more angered way (in a nonviolent way of course)

Try to avoid talking very much. DEFINATELY avoid shouting, screaming and singing - Make sure you don't need to shout by moving close to the people you're talking to, turning off the TV/radio/stereo when you're talking so you don't need to raise your voice. Move away from noisy machinery (such as washing machines). \n\nUse an alternative way of getting people's attention such as waving, putting your hand up, clapping, whistling or touching them, instead of calling out to them. \n\nDrink lots of water - tepid water is best. Avoid drinking very hot or cold drinks. Avoid drinks containing cafeine and alcohol. \n\nDon't smoke (probably dosen't apply to your daughter!) and try to avoid being in places where other people are smoking.\n\nTry to make sure the air in your home is not too dry (this can happen if you have central heating or air conditioning). Consider putting a bowl of water near heat sources.\n\nInhaling steam can be useful.\n\nSuck boiled sweets because these encourage saliva to flow and keep your throat moist (but also think about your teeth!)\n\nFor Thursday: If her throat is sore, just before her performance, your daughter might find it helpful to suck a throat lozenge that contains a mild local anasthetic (in the UK one brand is "Decquacaine", I'm not sure if they're available in other countries, might have another name). But CAUTION: Normally, you shouldn't let your daughter suck the lozenges because they will dull the pain and that will encourage her to over-use her voice.

It really depends on the situation.  Normally, adults speak first in more formal encounters and the child cues the adult that he/she has something to day and the adult does the introductions.  In more formal gatherings, a child speaking up on his/her own is considered speaking out of turn, especially when adult matters are being discussed.\n\nWhen a person enters an occupied room, it also depends on what he/she is interrupting.  If it's a speech or a performance, be as inconspicuous as possible and try not to disrupt it.  If it is a party, just blend in the crowd and look for the host/hostess. If it is a meeting for which you are late, it is proper to say your apologies for being late to the crowd.  If it is at an intimate gathering wherein you know some people but not all of them, again look for the one who invited you, greet him/her and then introduce yourself to those who are there.

you don't say anything to people like that. the best thing to do is ignore them and act like you did'nt even hear them. giving them a comment only let's them know they have got to you and encourages them to keep on.

You keep your mouth shut. You don't want to be as rude as they are, do you?

be open and honest with them, sometimes being polite is not the right thing to do, just tell them that you dont want to talk to them and if its really that bad say you dont want to talk to them now or ever again.
