The mouth is a source of disaster? Introducing Japanese Proverbs

Direct translation: The mouth is a source of disaster

Meaning: you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.

Example: Better not say everything you think. You always make them angry. Kuchi wa wazawai no moto dayo.

Romaji: kuchi wa wazawai no moto

Word: kuchi (口)= mouth, wazawai (災い)=disaster, もと (元)= source

Thats a Chinese proverb imported to Japanese actually

People also colloquially add "Sickness enters from the mouth" to "Trouble comes out from the mouth"
