The Latin phrase mortuis nihil nisi bonum (also De mortuis nil nisi bene [dicendum]) "Of the dead, [say] nothing but good", abbreviated as Nil nisi bonum, is a mortuary aphorism, indicating that it is socially inappropriate to speak ill of the dead as they are unable to justify themselves. The full sentence (De mortuis nil nisi bonum dicendum est) translates to "Of the dead nothing but good is to be said". Freer translations into English are often used as aphorisms, these include: "Speak no ill of the dead", "Of the dead, speak no evil", and "Do not speak ill of the dead".

has abstract	De mortuis nihil nisi bonum estas latina frazo, kiu indikas, ke estas socie malkonvene diri ion ajn negativan koncerne (ĵus) mortintan personon. Foje mallongigita al nil nisi bonum, ĝi signifas: "Pri la mortintoj, nenion krom bonon" (Alia varianto: "Pri la mortintoj diru aŭ bonon aŭ nenion"). La unua registrita uzo de la frazo estas de Diogeno Laertio en , kie li atribuas ĝin al . Ĉar ambaŭ viroj estis grekaj, kiel la origina aforismo estis τὸν τεθνηκóτα μὴ κακολογεῖν ("Ne fibuŝigu mortintan homon"). En 1432 itala teologo Ambrogio Traversari tradukis la laboron de Diogeno en la latinan, popularigante la frazon en tiu lingvo. Poste la disvastiĝis kaj aperis en diversaj literaturaj verkaĵoj en la originala formo aŭ pli ofte en tradukita formo, en la koncernaj naciaj lingvoj, eĉ en la ĉiutaga uzo.

Freer translations into English are often used as aphorisms, these include: "Speak no ill of the dead", "Of the dead, speak no evil", and "Do not speak ill of the dead". The aphorism is first recorded in Greek, as τὸν τεθνηκóτα μὴ κακολογεῖν (tòn tethnekóta mè kakologeîn, "Do not speak ill of the dead"), attributed to Chilon of Sparta (c. 600 BC), one of the Seven Sages of Greece, in the Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers (Book 1, Chapter 70) by Diogenes Laërtius, published in the early 4th century AD. The Latin version dates to the Italian Renaissance, from the translation of Diogenes' Greek by humanist monk Ambrogio Traversari (Laertii Diogenis vitae et sententiae eorum qui in philosophia probati fuerunt, published 1433).
