Etymology
The word 'natter' likely originates from the late 19th century in British English, though its exact origins are somewhat unclear. It may have roots in the Old English word 'nรฆdder,' which means to talk incessantly or prattle on. The term has evolved to embody a sense of casual and often aimless conversation, often found within informal settings. Over time, 'nattering' has been embraced in conversational English to describe an enjoyable yet frivolous exchange of words. Its usage has spread within various English-speaking communities, further embedding it in the vernacular.
