English-Dutch translations for gossip

roddel
Ik herhaalde dus slechts roddels, en dat is volgens mij niet verboden. Thus, I was merely repeating gossip, which I feel I am entitled to do. Maar we weten allemaal hoe het gaat in het leven, en zeker in de politiek, de roddel is hardnekkiger dan de waarheid, zelfs wanneer die roddel te pas en te onpas wordt verkondigd. As we know in life, though, and certainly in politics, gossip is more stubborn than the truth, especially when that gossip is bandied about constantly, whether or not it is relevant.
