What does DIALOG mean in Scrabble?
noun
North American
An American spelling of dialogue: a conversation between two or more people, or an exchange of views aimed at understanding or resolving a problem.
Dialog is the same word as dialogue, spelled without the final syllable that British English keeps; American writing uses both spellings, but dialog has become the standard form in computing, where a dialog box is a small window asking the user a question. Outside computing, dialog and dialogue are largely interchangeable for a spoken or written exchange, whether between characters in a play or between two governments trying to settle a dispute. The choice between dialog and dialogue is mostly a matter of national convention rather than meaning.
How DIALOG is used
Common in American English generally, and standard worldwide in computing for a dialog box; dialogue is the more usual British spelling.
