Etymology
The term 'gossip' derives from the Middle English word 'gossippe', which referred to a child's godparent, 'gossib', from 'god' and 'sib', meaning 'related to God'. It transitioned in the late 14th century to refer to the 'gossip' of friends who would gather, often women, to discuss matters of mutual interest, sometimes involving the personal lives of others. The connotation shifted over time to encompass informal talk about others, often with an implication of triviality or scandal, capturing the essence of sharing tales that revolve around social circles. Today, 'gossip' is a pervasive part of various cultures and social interactions, often portrayed in literature and media.
