意味
To start speaking or reveal something.
文化的背景
Mongolians believe that 'Silence is gold' (Дуугүй байх нь алт). Therefore, 'opening your mouth' is a significant act that signals the end of contemplation. In Mongolian business meetings, there is often a long silence after a proposal. This is not a 'no'; it's a period of thinking. The person who 'opens their mouth' first usually holds the most authority or the most courage. When entering a ger, it is customary to wait for the host to 'open their mouth' and ask 'Тавтай морилно уу?' (Welcome) before launching into long stories.
Use it for 'Breaking the Ice'
If you are in a quiet room, say 'Би түрүүлж ам нээе' (Let me speak first) to instantly sound like a natural speaker.
Don't over-conjugate
In many cases, 'Ам нээх' stays as a unit. Don't try to put adjectives between 'Ам' and 'нээх'.

よくある質問
2 問Generally no, unless you are in a fairy tale where animals talk. For animals opening their mouths to eat, use 'Амаа ангайх'.
No, it is a neutral idiom. However, telling someone 'Амаа нээ!' (Open your mouth!) can be rude depending on your tone.
