The act of chattering, gossiping, or talking excessively; idle talk or gossip.
From 'claver' (to chatter) + '-ing' (gerund/present participle). Scottish and Northern English dialect.
The gerund 'clavering' captures an activity rather than just a person—it's useful in Scottish dialect for describing the constant low hum of gossip that fills communal spaces like markets and taverns.
