dialogic
Involving mutual exchange
Dialogic describes something characterized by dialogue or conversation between two or more voices or perspectives.
The term appears most often in literary and philosophical contexts: Bakhtin's dialogic theory emphasizes how meaning emerges through interaction.
A dialogic approach to teaching encourages exchange rather than lecture.
The word contrasts with monologic, where a single voice dominates.
