Dialogue

A conversation amongst participants in a 1972 cross-cultural youth convention

Dialogue (sometimes spelled dialog in American English)[1] is a written or spoken conversational exchange between two or more people, and a literary and theatrical form that depicts such an exchange. As a philosophical or didactic device, it is chiefly associated in the West with the Socratic dialogue as developed by Plato, but antecedents are also found in other traditions including Indian literature.[2]
