Con gibberish (o anche jibberish) si intende un barbugliamento o borbottio, una serie di ciance, di parole o un gergo incomprensibile^[1]. Si tratta di qualcosa di analogo al grammelot, ma, a differenza di questo, non è necessariamente usato a scopo artistico.

Etimologia

Il termine è entrato per la prima volta nella lingua inglese nei primi anni del XVI secolo^[2]. L'etimologia più probabile è che si tratti di una parola di origine imitativa, dalla parola jabber o jibber ("parlare di sciocchezze senza senso"), con il suffisso -ish per indicare una lingua.

In passato si è affermato che derivasse dalla radice della parola irlandese gob o gab "bocca", che sarebbe anche l'etimo di jabber, gibber e gobble.^[3].

In alternativa, il termine gibberish potrebbe derivare dall'eclettica mescolanza di inglese, spagnolo, ebraico, hindi e arabo parlato nel territorio britannico di Gibilterra (Gibraltar; in arabo جبل طارق‎^?, jabal Ṭāriq, "la montagna di Tariq"), che è incomprensibile ai non nativi.^{[senza fonte]}

Un'altra teoria è che la parola derivi dal nome del famoso alchimista Islamico dell'VIII secolo Jabir ibn Hayyan, il cui nome è stato latinizzato in Geber, così il termine gibberish è sorto come un riferimento al gergo tecnico incomprensibile spesso usato da Jabir e gli altri alchimisti che sono seguiti.^[4]

Uso

Questa tecnica può essere usata come un esercizio di recitazione^[5].

Con neuro-gibberish viene inteso l'inserimento di argomenti neurologici, anche non pertinenti in un discorso per conferirgli maggiore credibilità^[6].
