What it means

A plain-English reading of the word, with the lexicons it draws on — Abbott-Smith, Strong's, and Liddell-Scott-Jones — right below it, in full.

AI Summary

λέγω means to say, speak, or tell — used of ordinary oral communication, whether stated plainly, put in someone's mouth as direct or reported speech, or addressed to another person or audience 1234. It also covers speech in written form, as when a writer or a passage of scripture "says" something 1, and can carry the sense of to mean, i.e., to intend a particular sense by what is said 13. It is also used to call or name someone or something, including in the passive, of a person who "is called" so-and-so 13.

Beyond simple speaking, the word can denote giving a systematic or set account, relating something in an ordered way, as opposed to a single brief utterance or a rambling talk 2.

In earlier (chiefly Homeric) Greek, apart from the Bible, λέγω also had the distinct, now-unused sense to pick up or gather, and by extension to count, reckon, or recount a list or number 3.
