Gossip

Gossip refers to informal, and often speculative or unverified, communication about people or events, particularly relating to personal, private, or sensitive information. It typically involves discussing the behaviors, relationships, or opinions of others, often in a social context. Gossip can occur in various forms, such as conversations among friends, discussions in the workplace, or posts on social media. While it can serve as a means of social bonding or community building, gossip can also be harmful, leading to misinformation, social exclusion, or damaging reputations. In some contexts, gossip may be seen as entertaining or trivial, but it often reflects deeper social dynamics and human relationships.
