Lengua de trapo is an expression used to refer to the way toddlers speak (baby talk).
Morderse la lengua is to mince your words.
Ah! and I forgot:lengua de gato. Know that one?
Does it mean, Did the cat get you tongue? (which means that you are short of words or strangely silent)

Oh, this is interesting:In the USA we say Morderse la lengua but it has a really different meaning. In means when you say something that you doesn't want to here. Example: Fulanito said, "I think it's going to rain on
the day of the wedding. Mengano answers "Bite you tongue!" Is there a similar phrase in Spanish?
