The most basic word would be the deponent verb loquor, meaning 'speak'. While I have never seen the word eloquor in a piece of literature, it couldvery well exist, and it would mean to 'speak out'.

Even more specifically, 'eloquent' would be formed from the present active participle "eloquens, eloquentis", meaning "speaking out"
