"Foot-in-mouth disease" nghĩa là gì?


"Foot-in-mouth disease" = bệnh chân trong mồm -> nghĩa là thói quen vô ý nói bậy, văng tục/ngu xuẩn. 

Ví dụ
Apparently, all that Hickenlooper — known for his quirkiness (mưu mô) and a chronic (kinh niên) case of foot-in-mouth disease — has needed to do to fend off Gardner’s attacks is point to the president. “The bottom line is: He’s been with Donald Trump 100 percent of the time,” Hickenlooper said in the candidates’ first debate.

Bengal BJP president Dilip Ghosh on Wednesday said the Dalit girl in Hathras of Uttar Pradesh had not been raped and she “was murdered (sát hại) to hide the truth”, the comment once again establishing his foot-in-mouth disease that often embarrassed the party.

Commander-in-chief or commander-in-gaffe? Joe Biden has had a long history of chronic foot-in-mouth disease, famous gaffes (câu nói hớ) and attempting to walk back the stupid things that come out of his mouth. Most recently, Biden had an exchange with CBS News correspondent Errol Barnett, who questioned the former VP about whether he has taken a cognitive test. “No, I haven’t taken a test. Why the hell would I take a test? Come on, man. That’s like saying you, before you got on this program, you take a test whether you’re taking cocaine or not. What do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?” Biden told Barnett. Current and past gaffes show weakness and will ultimately result in a third failed presidential bid.

Today earlier I said something stupid. Foot in mouth disease I suppose (cho rằng). I made an inappropriate and deeply regretful comment, that hurt my friend Joe’s feelings. I am never as hurt as when I hurt someone else.
