An interlocutor is someone who takes part in a conversation.
In the old days it also had a more specific use. In vaudeville acts
and minstrel shows, the MC, the guy who set up the jokes, was called the interlocutor.

An interlocutor is a person who takes part in a conversation or dialogue, or an interrogator. Gee, you could've gone to an online dicitonary and looked this up for yourself. I must be "eruditer" than you.

Different translations of the bible would suggest love and charity are synonmus. Examples found in.1st Corrinthians ch. 13 vs. 1-17 illustrate this many times. I would enjoy hearing from a scholar of the languages used in those past times to clarify my understanding. The story of the "World's Poorest Philanthropist", Gilbert "Harold" Ewing II (myself) is the reason for this querry. The " act of grace", or charity, reffered to in the news interview, has posited this question and I lack the sort of education to provide any insights of true value.

It is someone taking part in a conversation. This is the casual definition of it. Slightly more formal is someone who relays messages such as for government. Not an official spokesperson, but someone who is often more neutral for the sole purpose of relaying messages.
