"A word (once) spoken cannot be recalled" hoặc "word spoken is past recalling" nghĩa là lời đã nói ra thì không thể lấy lại, nhất ngôn cửu đỉnh, tứ mã nan truy.

Ví dụ
Once words are spoken they cannot be recalled and we cannot be free from the responsibility (trách nhiệm) of having made the statement.

A word once spoken is like a stone which has been thrown: wherefore it should be long thought over before it is uttered (thốt ra). Blessed, assuredly, are the lips, which never utter what they would wish to recall.

You know the Good Book tells us that the tongue is an unruly (bất kham) member, also that we should keep in mind that words once spoken we cannot recall, and the sting (châm chọc) they inflict we cannot remove.

You know, words, once spoken, cannot be recalled. If I answer your question you will know things that you should tell your husband and his mother at once. And they will ask you these things explicitly (rõ ràng). An once they know that you know them, they will think of you as an enemy.
