"yackkety-yakking" means "continuously talking without stopping" or "talking non-stop"
Here are some examples"
"I don't like Clare, she is always yackkety-yakking about her troubles."
"Those people in the movie theatre were so rude! They didn't stop yackkety-yakking the whole time!"
This expression is a little old though. I don't hear many people use it these days. :]
