quien tiene boca, se equivoca

/ˌkjen ˌtjene ˌboka | se ekiˈboka/

proverb/ˌkjen ˌtjene ˌboka | se ekiˈboka/

when speaking, it is normal to say something wrong; everything one says cannot always be right or true

Literally, “he who has a mouth makes mistakes [while talking]”, playing on the internal rhyme boca (“mouth”)/equivoca (“he/she mistakes”).
