Geseier
Geseier (also: Geseire (s) , Gesere ; plural for "Geseire" after Althaus (2003): Geseires ) with the meaning "(superfluous, useless) talk, chatter" is probably about the Rotwelsche from Yiddish in the 19th century Germans have been borrowed (see also: Yiddism ). Ultimately, it goes back to Hebrew “gesera” (Althaus 2004: 83). Kluge (2002) characterizes it as "vulgar" with regard to the stillage.
Truig (1986) cites Geseire with the meaning “plaintive talk, whining”; Duden. How do you say in Austria (1980) calls Geseres as an Austrian form.
