| meaning 2 | to chatter | Ils avaient jacassé ensemble près d'une heure, et je me demandais de quoi ils pouvaient jaboter si longtemps (Maupass., Contes et nouv., t. 2, Champ d'oliv., 1890, p. 93). J'entends en ce moment jaboter dans la chambre voisine de la mienne une petite fille de ton âge qui me fait songer à toi, chère enfant (Hugo, Corresp.,1840, p. 575). |
