STRONGS G60:
ἀγοραῖος (rarely -αία), -αῖον, (ἀγορά), relating to the marketplace;
1. frequenting the market-place (either transacting business, as the κάπηλοί, or) sauntering idly (Latin subrostranus, subbasilicanus, German Pfiastertreter, our loafer): Acts 17:5 (Plato, Prot. 347 c. ἀγοραῖοι καί φαῦλοι, Aristophanes ran. 1015, others).
2. of affairs usually transacted in the market-place: ἀγοραῖοι (namely, ἡμέραι [Winer's Grammar, 590 (549)] or σύνοδοι [Meyer and others]) ἄγονται, judicial days or assemblies [A. V. marginal reading court-days], Acts 19:38 (τὰς ἀγοραίους ποιεῖσθαι, Strabo 13, p. 932), but many think we ought to read ἀγόραῖοι here, so G L cf. Winers Grammar, 53 (52); but see [Alford and Tdf. at the passage; Lipsius, Gram. Untersuch., p. 26;] Meyer on Acts 17:5; Göttling, p. 297; [Chandler edition 1, p. 269].
