STRONGS G1256:

διαλέγομαι; imperfect διελεγόμην; [1 aorist 3 person singular διελέξατο (L T Tr WH in Acts 17:2; Acts 18:19)]; 1 aorist διελέχθην; (middle of διαλέγω, to select, distingish);
1. to think different things with oneself, mingle thought with thought (cf. διαλογίζομαι); to ponder, revolve in mind; so in Homer.
2. as very frequent in Attic, to converse, discourse with one, argue, discuss: absolutely, [Acts 18:4]; Acts 19:8f; [Acts 20:9]; περί τινος, Acts 24:25; τινί, with one, Acts 17:17; Acts 18:19; Acts 20:7; Hebrews 12:5; ἀπὸ τῶν γραφῶν, drawing arguments from the Scriptures, Acts 17:2; πρός τινα, Acts 17:17; Acts 24:12; with the idea of disputing prominent: πρὸς ἀλλήλους, followed by the interrogative τίς, Mark 9:34; περί τινος, Jude 1:9.
