- Yenta or Yente (Yiddish: יענטאַ ‎) is a Yiddish designation for a woman who is a gossip or busybody. The female name is derived from Yentl, in turn derived from a word in Old Italian which means kind or amiable. In the age of Yiddish theater, it started referring to a busybody or gossipmonger. The word has since become Yinglish (a Yiddish loanword in American Jewish English).
