Why do some people use phrasal verb in their conversation? A sentence can be formed with normal part of speech, consist of Subject, verb sometimes using an objecy too. But sometime people say, for example “why not having him over to come to the party on the next weekend? Instead of “why not invite him to come to the party on the next weekend? By the way i start to understand using phrasal verb can indicate someone (he or her) able to speak english more fluently than someone who don’t. Or maybe that’s just a common form of conversation in native speaker. Is that true?

Yes, phrasal verbs are very in native speech. They often seem more natural or colloquial to us than alternative ways of saying something which do not use them.
