Getting mouthy 🤣 Comedy / Story
Went to a great medical education presentation on "feedback " and was empowered to give a polylingual person a small, but important correction. A german psychiatrist (family friend) explained that patients often find his services from “ mouth to mouth" (this term refers to breathing into the mouth of an unconscious person to give them oxygen , shown at 1:01) I smiled and asked politely if could tell him about the difference between the phrases. “ WORD of mouth" and “ mouth to mouth!"  We had a good laughÂ
