短释义：
Around a friend who’s afraid of snakes, you use tact when talking about reptiles because you don’t want to upset them. The Latin root word tangere means “touch,” and a person with tact avoids touching dangerous words like they are an electric fence. When you say something without tact, you “put your foot in your mouth,” as the phrase goes. You don’t literally put your foot in your mouth, although if you did you’d avoid offending people with words.
仔细说话而不伤害任何人的感受，这就是机智。政治家有机智，这使他们善于谈论敏感的事情而不愚弄自己。至少有时他们有机智。

围绕一个害怕蛇的朋友，您在谈论爬行动物时会使用机智，因为您不想让它们不高兴。拉丁语词语Tangere的意思是“触摸”，而有触觉的人则避免触摸危险单词，就像它们是电围栏一样。当您没有机智的话时，您就会“将脚放在嘴里”。您不会从字面上将脚放在嘴里，尽管如果您这样做了，您会避免冒出言语的人。
