mouther

Words without voice

A mouther is someone who mouths—speaks without sincerity, moves their lips silently, or puts things in their mouth.

The word appears most often in compounds: a foul-mouther speaks crudely, a loud-mouther talks too much or too boldly.

On its own, mouther suggests empty talk or excessive verbosity: He's all mouther, no doer.
