Q:
what are fancy talks? ne anlama geliyor?
A:
A "fancy talker" is someone who uses words that others don't understand, usually because they are trying to seem better than everyone else. It is usually said in spite to call someone out for showing off in this way or to discredit someone that one cannot understand. I see this mostly with Southerners and Southern stereotype characters.
Example:
"We've had enough of your fancy talking, Dr. Neil."
"Quit your fancy talking and start making some sense."
"This hospital's just full of these fancy talking doctors and I still don't know what's going on!"

Talking in circles is when you keep talking but aren’t saying anything new. You just keep repeating the same ideas.
Contradicting yourself is saying things that can’t both be true like “I was born in Europe. The first country I was ever in was Japan”.
Saying nothing just means “saying nothing of value”.
