The saying "put a sock in it" is an informal expression used to tell someone to be quiet or stop talking. It implies that the person should silence themselves, often because their speech is considered annoying or unwelcome. The phrase originates from the idea of using a sock to muffle sound, emphasizing the desire for silence.
