意味
A person who talks too much or rudely.
文化的背景
In Uzbek families, 'tili uzunlik' is one of the most common criticisms leveled at daughters-in-law (kelinlar) who try to voice their opinions against their mothers-in-law. The concept of 'Andisha' (social restraint) is the opposite of 'Tili uzunlik'. A person with andisha knows when to remain silent to preserve harmony. The Turkish equivalent 'Dili uzun' is used almost identically, reflecting the shared Turkic linguistic heritage and social values regarding respect for elders. In many Arabic-speaking cultures, having a 'long tongue' is also a serious social slight, often implying a lack of upbringing or 'adab'.
Avoid with Elders
Never use this phrase to describe someone older than you in their presence. It is a major social taboo.
The 'Short Tongue' Trick
If you want to say someone is humbled or can't talk back, use 'Tili qisqa'. It's a great high-level contrast.
