With thanks to Rabbi Zelig Pliskin for kindly giving me permission to use extracts from his book, “Guard Your Tongue” (based on “Chofetz Chaim”). Rabbi Pliskin said he will be pleased to know these halachot are being publicised more widely, especially in view of the fact that his own father was a talmid of the Chofetz Chaim, who went to great lengths to make these laws better known.
