1: λαλέω

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

"to speak," is rendered "to utter " in 2 Corinthians 12:4; Revelation 10:3,4 (twice). See PREACH , SAY , SPEAK , TALK , TELL.

2: ἐρεύγομαι

(Strong's #2044 — Verb — ereugomai — er-yoog'-om-ahee )

primarily, "to spit or spue out," or, of oxen, "to bellow, roar," hence, "to speak aloud, utter," occurs in Matthew 13:35 . This affords an example of the tendency for certain words to become softened in force in late Greek.

3: ἀφίημι

(Strong's #863 — Verb — aphiemi — af-ee'-ay-mee )

"to send forth," is used of "uttering" a cry, Mark 15:37 , of Christ's final "utterance" on the Cross, RV, "uttered" (AV, "cried"). See FORGIVE , LAY , Note (2), LEAVE , LET , OMITTED , PUT , REMIT , SUFFER , YIELD.

4: δίδωμι

(Strong's #1325 — Verb — didomi — did'-o-mee )

"to give," is translated "utter" in 1 Corinthians 14:9 . See GIVE.

5: φθέγγομαι

(Strong's #5350 — Verb — phthengomai — ftheng'-gom-ahee )

"to utter a sound or voice," is translated "uttering" in 2 Peter 2:18 , RV: see SPEAK , No. 4.

Notes: (1) In Romans 8:26 , alaletos, "inexpressible" (a, negative, laleo, "to speak"), is rendered "which cannot be uttered." (2) In Hebrews 5:11 , AV, dusermeneutos, followed by lego, "to speak," [translated "hard of interpretation" (RV), dus (whence "dys-" in Eng., "dyspeptic," etc.), a prefix like Eng., "un-," or "mis-," and hermeneuo, "to interpret"], is rendered "hard to be uttered."
