From French chuchotage (“whispering”).
Meanings
-
(uncountable) The interpretation or translation of speech in a whisper to a single person or small group in proximity to others who aren't listening to the translation.
Eventually, the words of such Aramaic whisper-translations (called chuchotage in the modern world of international interpreters) were written down, mostly in small fragments, and these targums now provide precious linguistic and historical records for scholars of Judaism.
