معنی۱
This phrase shows up most in family politics, where older relatives sometimes "speak for" younger ones in matchmaking, career, or in-law conversations. The taarof culture of indirect speech makes the offense more common: a guest's polite "maybe" can get repeated back as "yes," and حرف تو دهنم گذاشت is the corrective.
