Please explain the phrase, "Actions speak louder than words" with examples.
assistant
Actions speak louder than words means that what someone does is more telling and more important than what they say. For example, if a person says they are going to go to the gym five days a week but consistently only goes two, their actions of not following through show more clearly than if they had simply stated their intention but not followed through. Another example would be if someone claims to love you, but never takes the time to show it through small displays of affection.
