Dialogue
Dialogue (sometimes spelled dialog in American English) 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 narrative, 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.
In the 20th century, philosophical treatments of dialogue emerged from thinkers including Mikhail Bakhtin, Paulo Freire, Martin Buber, and David Bohm. Although diverging in many details, these thinkers have articulated a holistic concept of dialogue as a multi-dimensional, dynamic and context-dependent process of creating meaning. Educators such as Freire and Ramón Flecha have also developed a body of theory and technique for using egalitarian dialogue as a pedagogical tool.
Etymology
The term dialogue stems from the Greek διάλογος (dialogos, conversation); its roots are διά (dia: through) and λόγος (logos: speech, reason). The first extant author who uses the term is Plato, in whose works it is closely associated with the art of dialectic. Latin took over the word as dialogus.
Dialogue in writing
Dialogue in fiction, is a verbal exchange between two or more characters. If there is only one character talking aloud, it is a monologue.
Identifiers
"This breakfast is making me sick," George said.
The George said is the identifier. Said is the verb most writers use because reader familiarity with said prevents it from drawing attention to itself. Although other verbs such as ask, shout, or reply are acceptable, some identifiers get in the reader's way. For example:
"Hello," he croaked nervously, "my name's Horace."
"What's yours?" he asked with as much aplomb as he could muster.
another example is:
"My name is Peg, what's yours?" I asked.
"My name is William, but my friends call me Will," said Will.
Stephen King, in his book On Writing, expresses his belief that said is the best identifier to use. King recommends reading a novel by Larry McMurtry, whom he claims has mastered the art of well-written dialogue.
Substitutes are known as said-bookisms. For example, in the sentence "What do you mean?" he smiled., the word smiled is a said-bookism.

DIALOGUE
by: Thavius BeckThey say the state of your environment
Coupled with defiance of societal requirements
Is what creates violence
That and repetition of pimpin’, shootin’, and lootin’ in media
transmission
In addition to the negligence of parents due to lots of broken homes
Bitterness and broken dreams lead to brittle broken bones
So little kids roam the streets like wide-eyed prey
Continuing the cycle of decay
Everyday a vital image of a foolish imitation
Is impressioned on a person a becomes an aspiration
They wanna acquire the chain the fool had on the flyer
They want guns, girls, rings, cars, rims, tires
They want heroes but the got liars
Those who focus only on material desires
And will do whatever necessary to acquire
A hot spot on a skewer roasting in eternal fire
So are these young ones the collective sums of the slums they inhabit?
Inhibited by violence that borders on pornographic
Or is it that the truth has been slightly fabricated
Borrowed by every rapper twisted and exaggerated
Now it’s incorporated in their bio
Shot 5 times by a wino
On the way to sell crack for their auntie’s pimp
Now that’s the back-story for that well rehearsed limp
As long as it sells
That’s the story they’ll continue to tell
And these fools keep lying
‘Cuz you fool keep buying
What’s defined as a dream for a young black teen
Big stacks of green
Sacks by the triple beam
Just generations away from being slaves
Yet this is how you jigaboo niggas wanna behave?
Shucking and jiving
Bug-eyed grinning
With your ancestors spinning like gyroscopes in their graves
Think about it
