あいつがどれだけ口が達者か

Do you know what a talker that guy is?!

関谷：お前はあいつがどれだけ口が達者か知らないんだよ。
清水：どういう風に？
関谷：こう言えばああ言う、ああ言えばこう言う、こっちが一個と言えば十言ぐらい返ってくるんだから。

Sekitani: You don’t know what a talker that guy is.
Shimizu: How so?
Sekitani: You say this, he says that, you say that, he says this. If you say one thing, he comes back with about 10 things to say.

Thanks, Chosun Ilbo! (I get it for free at the Korean market).

“Kuchi ga tassha” describes a person who is a good talker, or as ALC puts it, has “the gift of gab.” BTW, if you don’t read kanji so much and want to learn more about the vocabulary used, try putting the permalink in rikai.com.
