A — 1: λόγος

(Strong's #3056 — Noun Masculine — logos — log'-os )

"a word," is translated "talk" in Matthew 22:15; Mark 12:13 . See ACCOUNT , B.

A — 2: λῆρος

(Strong's #3026 — Noun Masculine — leros — lay'-ros )

B — 1: λαλέω

(Strong's #2980 — Verb — laleo — lal-eh'-o )

"to speak, say," is always translated "to speak" in the RV, where the AV renders it by "to talk," Matthew 12:46; Mark 6:50; Luke 24:32; John 4:27 (twice); 9:37; 14:30; Acts 26:31; Revelation 4:1; 17:1; 21:9,15 . The RV rendering is preferable; the idea of "chat" or "chatter" is entirely foreign to the NT, and should never be regarded as the meaning in 1 Corinthians 14:34,35 .

(Strong's #3656 — Verb — homileo — hom-il-eh'-o )

"to be in company with, consort with" (homilos, "a throng;" homilia, "a company"), hence, "to converse with," is rendered "to talk with," Acts 20:11 . See COMMUNE , No. 2.

B — 4: συνομιλέω

(Strong's #4926 — Verb — sunomileo — soon-om-il-eh'-o )
