Passages in ancient Greek city by lake (6)

I believe the answer is:

largos

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'passages' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to communication as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?

'ancient greek city by lake' is the wordplay.
'ancient greek city' becomes 'argos' (I've seen this before).
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'lake' becomes 'L' (geographical abbreviation).
'argos' after 'l' is 'LARGOS'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for largos that I've seen before include "Movements" , "Slow pieces of music" .)
