According to the dictionary on my computer a yenta is a woman who like to gossip.

A Yenta would be Yentyl's goomah.

Yentl was a Barbara Streisand movie in the 80s.

Someone who makes it her life's mission to butt into other people's business and who believes that there are two opinions in this world- hers and the wrong one. If you looked it up in the dictionary, you'd probably find a picture of me;)
