Waaaaaaitaminnit. But "Ookii" (Big) isn't a "-Na" adjective! >__o

@Kosetsu

The Japanese word for big is a bit odd in that it can be used as either an -i adjective (ookii) or a -na adjective (ookina). I've never seen any particular pattern to which version is used, so it's probably variable from region to region.

In this case he would calling her literally a big mouth.

'kuchi ga ookii' on the other hand, would mean 'has a big mouth.'
