Chat, gossip (6)
I believe the answer is:
natter

'chat' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'gossip' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for natter that I've seen before include "Talk socially without exchanging too much information" , "Talk idly" , "Chat casually" , "Chinwag" , "Chat busily" .)
