I drove through Alabama on Friday and Sunday. I saw plenty of Bama and Auburn car stickers on Friday, and hardly any on Sunday despite going right through Auburn.

It depends on who you ask. Most reputable dictionaries do not formally recognize it as a legitimate word in Standard Modern English. However, some would argue that it is now a part of the English vernacular.
It is classified as a 'back-formation' word.

“Conversate” not only is a word in African-American English, but also has a more specialized meaning than “converse”; it tends to have more connotations of small talk or flirtation. It’s also favored by rappers, as in this line I found in the Corpus of Contemporary American English (4), in a rap about AIDS: “There's no debate, conversate with your mate / And don't wait until it's too late.” - See more at: https://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/is-conversate-a-word?page=2#sthash.8E99NDYd.dpuf
