■多嘢講不一定有問題，單純多嘴、講嘢不經大腦，以至愛講是非，英文都有對應字詞。 網上圖片上集提到英文stuck-up指自以為高高在上、帶有階級意味的「寸」，以及snobbish這個近義字，有例句如下：
You are so stuck-up man. How can you look down on others?
你好寸喎朋友，你點可以睇低其他人㗎？
She's very snobbish-if you haven't been to prestigious schools, she probably won't even speak to you.
佢非常之寸㗎，如果你唔係讀名校，佢應該唔會理你。
Chatty多嘢講 Prattler講蠢話
當外國人可能覺得有人極其囂張和驕傲，會叫佢做big head，意思唔係指你個頭很大：You're such a big head.
講完「寸嘴」，又講一講「多嘴」先。我們可以用chatty或talkative，是沒有貶義的，名詞是chatterbox，但如果嗰個人多嘢講到有點兒「長氣」的話，我們會叫這種人做windbag或gasbag。
至於「多嘴」但又講埋啲蠢嘢的人，叫prattler；而多嘢講但主要講是非的人，叫gossiper；多嘴之餘還要講得超快、連停頓也沒有的，我們會叫他做motormouth。
Loudmouth「口大無腦」
那loudmouth又是什麼？外國人說某人是loudmouth並不是指他講說話大聲，是指說話太多又毫無技巧的人，不得不提的是bigmouth和blabbermouth，這兩個字都是和loudmouth的意思差不多。
可見，原來「多嘴」都可以有好多「層次」。
At best, you can say Rebecca is a chatterbox. At worst, I'd say she is a windbag/ gasbag.
充其量，你可以話Rebecca係一個好鍾意講嘢嘅人。衰啲講句，我會話佢係個「長氣精」。
你可以將prattler一字轉成動詞prattle來用：
Can you stop prattling? I've had enough.
你可唔可以唔好再一輪嘴講埋啲蠢嘢？我聽夠啦！
Don't you know she's a gossiper? If you want to keep a secret, you should not tell her at all.
你唔知佢係是非精咩？如果你想將一件事保密，就直頭唔好話畀佢知。
Pardon me, I can't follow you at all, motormouth!
我完全跟唔到你講嘅嘢啊，「摩打嘴」！
I did not know she is a loudmouth until I heard her speech.
直到我聽到佢演講，先知佢係個講嘢咁無技巧的人。
I couldn't believe it! How could he say we are losers? What a bigmouth he is!
真係難以置信，佢點可以話我哋成班係廢柴先？佢真係口不擇言呀！■吹水同學會會長 馬漪楠
