What does YATTER mean in Scrabble?
verb
informalBritish
To talk on and on, often about trivial things.
To yatter is to chatter without pause, the way a group of friends might run through gossip without drawing breath. The word has a Scots and northern English background and has an imitative sound, as though echoing the rush of speech. It is more lively than the closely related witter, and it often implies noise as well as quantity. As a noun it names the endless chatter itself.
