garrulous
UK: ˈɡær.ʊ.ləs | US: ˈɡær.ʊ.ləs
adj. excessively talkative, especially about trivial matters
The word "garrulous" stems from the Latin root garrulus (meaning "chattering" or "talkative"), derived from garrire ("to chatter"). The suffix -ous (from Latin -osus) turns it into an adjective, emphasizing a tendency or quality. The word vividly captures the image of someone who talks incessantly, much like the sound of rapid, meaningless chatter.
