The easiest way to get some idea is to listen, listen, listen. Your local repeaters will have contacts initiated and conversations that are different to what you'll hear on HF. Until you get your HF rig you can use some of the SDR receivers at websdr.org

The first contact or two will be a bit nerve wracking and you'll probably sound a bit wobbly but explain its your first QSO and if you're lucky you'll get a ham who has been through it all before and get you into a conversation and from then it becomes easier.

No politics or religion.
