dialoged

Had a conversation

Dialoged is a past tense of dialogue used as a verb, meaning to engage in conversation or discussion: The two leaders dialoged for hours.

This verbal use of dialogue—and its spelling variant dialogued—strikes some as corporate jargon or unnecessarily fancy, since talked or discussed usually works better.
