The meaning of the idiom “Actions speak louder than words” is that people’s actions are more important than their words. It means that what someone does is more important than what they say.
Actions speak louder than words originated in the 16th century. It is believed to have originated from Aesop’s fable “The Boy Who Cried Wolf.”
For example, if someone says they are going to help you, but they never actually do anything to help, then their words are meaningless.
The idiom can also be used to mean that someone is not being honest. For example, if someone says they are going to do something, but you know they don’t really mean it, then their words are just empty promises.
