"I really put my foot in my mouth when I mentioned her ex-boyfriend."
"私は本当に口を滑らせた、彼女の元彼について話したとき。" (watashi wa hontoni **kuchi wo tsukkomanda**, kanojo no motokare ni tsuite hanashita toki.)
to experience the same unpleasantness you caused to others
to fail completely
to fail to meet expectations or standards
to be competent or deserving respect in one’s field
my patience has run out
to compete strongly with someone; to challenge effectively
