معنی
Praising someone or something very much.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Marathi families, 'Kautuk' (appreciation) is a way of bonding. Speaking 'with a full mouth' about a relative's success is seen as a sign of a healthy, non-envious family dynamic. Classic Marathi writers like P.L. Deshpande often used this idiom to describe the warm, talkative nature of middle-class Maharashtrians when they admire someone. In villages, when a local boy joins the army or becomes an officer, the entire village 'speaks with a full mouth' at the village square (Chavadi). It's a matter of collective honor. Marathi YouTubers and influencers use this phrase in their 'Thank You' videos to describe the overwhelming positive response from their subscribers.
Use with '-बद्दल'
To sound most natural, use the pattern: [Person] + बद्दल + तोंड भरून बोलणे.
Not for Food
Remember, if you are literally eating, don't use this idiom to describe your talking!
