Cách sử dụng
"Mud sticks" is an English expression that means if someone accuses you of doing something bad, even if it's not true, people might still believe it and think less of you. It's like mud that once it sticks to you, it's hard to get rid of it. The expression is often used in situations where someone's reputation is at stake, and false accusations are made. It's important to remember that just because someone accuses you of something doesn't mean it's true, and you should always try to defend yourself and clear your name.
