免傷和氣***

好多時說得太多
未必一定是好事
正所謂禍從口出
到時駟馬都難追
一言不慎會惹禍
可以會陷入困窘
所以說話要小心
才可以免傷和氣

Don’t destroy a good relationship

Saying too much may not necessarily be a good thing to do. We are familiar with the Chinese saying that you can’t send four horses to chase your spoken words. Once these words cause harm to you and you will never be able to do anything to repair the damage. A careless word may get you into trouble. Therefore, you need to be careful about what you have to say otherwise, you may destroy a good relationship.

說甚麽才好***

做人不怕傷人虎
只怕人情两面刀
做人要小心說話
好多時惡言一出
會傷害他人自尊
惡言切忌會亂說
善言不妨說多聲
感恩讚美不妨說

What to say

People shouldn’t be afraid of the ferocity of tigers but should be more alert to the sharpness of people’s speech. Be careful of what you have to say, otherwise your words may hurt other people’s dignity. Always remember not to say words that hurt people. Instead say more supportive words and words of appreciation.
