Etimoloji
From mond + dood, a calque of German mundtot (“silenced”). The term was reinterpreted as meaning "dead in the mouth", but it is originally a legal term meaning “legally incapable”, with the component mund- from Old High German munt (“protection, guardianship”), from Proto-Germanic *mundō.
