A prolonged form of an otherwise obsolete verb; to talk, that is, utter words: - preach, say, speak (after), talk, tell, utter. Compare G3004
Luke 2:36, 37, 38. And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel of the tribe of Aser; she was of a great age and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity. And she was a widow of about four score and four..years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayer night and day. And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

I fit her right in with the other prophets and such. She preached about Jesus.
However, RDP and those who believe otherwise will tell you she didn't 'preach', nor were there men present in the temple, and that as a prophetess, she only spoke about future events, which don't count.
