Children,
today teacher is here to teach you what "putting words in people's mouth" means.
By a classic ekzampel, listen to this conversation between 2 people:
Anybody: Why is he sleeping, huh?
Somebody: Ohhh.. he's tired, after a long drive, as he's also very old. So let's keep quiet and let him rest, k?
Anybody: Ohhh.. i see, i see.
Hours later, Somebody told Everybody "Any is so panai, she tells everyone that he is tired and drove a long journey, so he's sleeping and asked everyone to keep quiet"
This is what we called "putting words in people's mouth", sometimes can be translated as "eat dead cat" too (sek sei mau).
Class dismiss.
