gabblers
Those who prattle
Gabblers are people who talk rapidly, continuously, and often unintelligibly.
The term carries a dismissive tone, suggesting that what's being said lacks substance or coherence.
The gabblers in the back of the room made it hard to concentrate.
Gabbler can also refer to certain birds, particularly geese or ducks, whose vocalizations sound like rapid, meaningless chatter.
