I will never wed another! You hain't congenial to me anyway! It is vain for you to elope with me for I will never be your brides!" But they jabbered and motioned and acted and paid no attention only to rush along faster than ever. I then tried a new tact with 'em.
I spoke to him in what Arabic I could command on a sudden, and he jabbered to me in a corrupt dialect, giving me a confused account of a captivity which he had undergone amidst savage Mahometans. At last I asked him what religion he was of. "The Christian," he replied. "Have you ever been of the Jewish?" said I. He returned no answer save by a grin.
I thought that, being a learned man, I might make shift to make you understand, and that you would maybe go wid me and explain the matter to him. "'That will I, says he; and he wint and jabbered away with the innkeeper, and at last turned to me and said: 'He will let you have a room, seeing that it is for the service of good Catholics and not heretics."
She was so determined to make the atmosphere cozy, friendly, happy make the atmosphere as it had used to be between them so determined, that she jabbered on like a magpie, like a mill, about this, that, and the other, sprinkling in little jokes in her own manner, and little stories in her own taste, accompanied by her rich on this occasion slightly nervous gurgle.

They pointed down, and pointed up, and shook their heads, and jabbered some strange, unintelligible patois. "Cowards!" cried Ethel, "to leave a young girl to die. I will go down myself."
Gondolas of all sizes were gliding up and down, with their sharp, fishy-looking prows of steel pushing their ways silently among each other, while gondoliers shouted and jabbered, and made as much confusion in their way as terrestrial hackmen on dry land.
Stevenson never learned Samoan, the two had perforce to invent a sort of pidgin dialect of their own, in which they jabbered away successfully but which no one else could understand. She later found an intelligent Samoan named Leuelu who understood her pidgin Samoan perfectly and learned to carry out all her orders.
Sister turned pale and said nothing, but Boy Comfort, who at last had decided, to open his mouth and had become quite a chatterbox, jabbered away and stuck out his little stomach like a drummer. He was a sturdy little fellow, and Ellen's eyes followed him proudly as he went round the garden. The knowledge that everything was alive had a remarkable effect upon the two children.
"Damn rot!" snarled the general and went into the kitchen and shook Leontyevna, explaining to her about the pipes. "I will go to the Exchange and complain! Not even letting one rest!...Stealing in to an undressed woman!..." Lina jabbered her words after her like a parrot. Sergius ran in. "Leave off, please," he begged. "It is I who am responsible. Let Leontyevna sleep."
